Permanent, Term time

Full-time - part-time considered.

Abbot’s Hill School are seeking to appoint a Head of Pathways (Careers) to lead careers education across the school to start in September 2025 or sooner.  The role will be term-time only and part time will also be considered.

The Head of Pathways will design and oversee the delivery of a coherent curriculum spanning from KS2 to the end of KS4, which will support students as they progressively shape, define, and refine their vision for their future, fostering in them a set of core skills that will inform their decision-making about subject choices, university pathways, and career choices. The careers curriculum should also align with Gatsby benchmarks. 

The Head of Pathways will work alongside the Deputy Heads and Heads of Year to provide students with guidance, direction, and purpose at each stage in their journey through the School. To enhance students’ understanding of the range of possibilities open to them – both at school and after they leave – the Head of Pathways will utilise and build upon the alumni network to provide students with compelling and varied perspectives on adult life. 

Underpinning the objectives for this curriculum are our core values as a School to be: curious, challengers, kind, authentic and involved.
