Charterhouse is a beautiful school in a 250-acre campus – a wonderful setting
for the whole community to live and work together and a splendid backdrop for
teaching and learning.


Founded in 1611, Charterhouse is one of the world’s leading coeducational
independent schools, welcoming boarders and day pupils at 13+ entry and 16+
entry.


Surrounded by a world of opportunity and connected by a feeling of belonging,
each pupil at Charterhouse is educated to embrace life’s full potential, and
empowered to carry this into their future. A Charterhouse education prepares
for both academic success as well as laying the foundations for future
professional, social and personal fulfilment.


The School is academically ambitious for every pupil, with all strands of a
Charterhouse education leading towards being fully prepared for the real-world
of tomorrow and equipped to grasp future opportunity.


The curriculum is all about choice for the individual and is firmly rooted in
academic rigour, intellectual curiosity and independent learning. Year 9 pupils
follow a real breadth of academic subjects, with the curriculum in Years 10 and
11 culminating in (I)GCSEs.


Pupils benefit from the dual offer available in the Sixth Form: A Levels with an
Extended Project Qualification or the breadth of the IB Diploma Programme. A
wonderful range of academic electives are on offer, including the Charterhouse
Entrepreneurship Diploma (accredited by the Institute of Enterprise and
Entrepreneurs) and the Ivy House Leadership Award.


From an outstanding and varied academic education to the raft of co-curricular
options – opportunities abound at Charterhouse. With over 80 activities, the cocurriculum is an essential strand of a Charterhouse education, combining
opportunities for leadership development, creativity, exercise and team work.


The Boarding House teams are at the heart of supporting each young person on
their journey through the School. The Heads of House live in the Houses, and
are supported by a team of tutors and pastoral staff – two of whom are also
residential. The House Teams are supported by a 24-hour Health Centre and
pupils also have access to support through the Wellbeing team, counsellors and
chaplaincy.


Shared values are central to life at Charterhouse, enabling each person to be
themselves – everything at Charterhouse begins with kindness. We warmly
welcome applicants who will share our values and with the enthusiasm and
energy to make a significant and lasting contribution to life at the School.


Together we can ensure that Charterhouse continues to be a world-class
education provider.

- Experienced coach with at least a Level 2 coaching qualification.
- Excellent organisational, administrative and ICT skills.
- Experience of coaching at all levels in an educational setting would be

- High levels of personal and professional integrity and the ability to
