Female Deputy Head Secondary

Doha, Baladīyat ad Dawḩah, Qatar Durham School for Girls Doha Full time

This is an outstanding opportunity to take up a Deputy Head positions within a new revitalized leadership team. This new leadership team will guide a highly distinctive school into the next phase of its development. This post will be ideally for August 2024, but for the right candidate January 2025

The new Deputy Head Pastoral ( Secondary ) will work respectfully with the Secondary SLT and will be responsible for Behaviour, Heads of Year, House system, Assemblies etc and working with the Deputy Heads Welfare and inclusion for developing our girls.

This is a non teaching position, but some teaching responsibilities will be included.

Since opening in 2019, Durham School for Girls Doha has established itself as a vital addition to the Qatar school landscape and as the school of choice for girls in Qatar. Founded in partnership with Durham School in the UK and guided by the Durham motto of 'Confidence for Life', DSGD aims to be a caring, supportive community that can unlock and fulfil each student's full potential. An emphasis on Qatari culture and values is supported by a strong British Curriculum offer and shaped by Durham School's 600 years of tradition and its MARK values (Moral Integrity, Ambition, Responsibility, Kindness) – values that resonate with Qatar's national values.

DSGD's first four years exceeded expectations in terms of numbers – which now stand at 1,300 – and the school has helped to redefine girls' education in a way that supports The Qatar National Vision 2030 and its emphasis on empowering women to participate fully in the political, economic and social life of the country. DSGD seeks to build the emotional, moral and spiritual strength that will be essential to future leadership. The school is QNSA and BSO-accredited and was the first all-girls international school to become a High-Performance Learning World Class School.

These remarkable achievements have required a fine balance between the needs of Qatar, an emphasis on local culture, traditions and beliefs, outstanding British curriculum delivery, a genuinely holistic approach, and close attention to the girls' academic and pastoral development. The challenge now is to consolidate this success, to sharpen and embed the school's identity and ambitions, and to understand what this means for DSGD's next stage of development.

To meet the challenge of steering the school into this next, exciting period, a new The Deputy Head Pastoral will become increasingly important not only in leading their respective divisions but in providing cross-school operational and strategic leadership.

DSGD is seeking two outstanding and experienced pastoral leaders. These are rare opportunities in a unique school – a chance to be part of taking the leadership of the school to a new level, consolidating all that the school has achieved so rapidly, further developing its identity and strategic direction, and raising standards across the school so that it can become a transformational force in girls' education in Qatar and the region.

Candidates will combine leadership experience with energy and dynamism and a conviction about the school's values and the idea of 'Confidence for Life'. They will want to be part of an international school that is contributing to a national agenda and will understand how a British education can be a vehicle for this.

The school is seeking candidates who see this as a medium-long-term commitment. This will be an outstanding opportunity for the right candidate.

For more details please see the school info pack.

Interviews will be ongoing.
