We are supporting one of the world’s leading international schools, St George’s International School, on the appointment of a new Principal. St George’s is a day and boarding school set in an idyllic campus, educating a truly international community of approximately 400 boys and girls aged 1.5 to 18 years from over 60 nationalities.
The School has achieved the country’s top IB results for the last two years, is ranked as a top 5 IB school in Switzerland and is a proud member of the prestigious Swiss Learning group. For the fourth year in a row, the School has celebrated results recognised as outstanding by international standards; consistent performance over a long period of time being testament to the strength of the world-class quality of teaching staff and school culture of high performance.
St George’s delivers a holistic experience to its pupils, and the magnificent 12-acre campus near Montreux overlooking Lake Geneva and the Alps offers a safe and secure environment with a range of first class facilities, which allow pupils to achieve academic excellence while placing an emphasis on their broader talents and physical development. Students enjoy sports and artistic pursuits in a beautiful, safe municipality while immersing themselves in nature – all within close proximity of this well-connected region of Switzerland. The main language of instruction is English, with the School also offering a thriving bilingual English/French programme.
St George’s is part of the Inspired Education Group, a leading global group of 119 premium schools across 27 countries and 6 continents, designed to allow students to achieve their full potential in nurturing and progressive academic environments. The successful candidate will be expected to work collaboratively as part of a regional team, and to build close relationships with the Group Board and regional family of schools.
The Group now seeks a new Principal – this person will be an exceptional international educator with a passion for excellence and a commitment to the highest academic standards and educational rigour. This individual will be dedicated to driving academic ambition and achievement through a leadership style that empowers others and builds capacity among both students and staff.
