St Paul's Girls' School is an extraordinary institution. While we consistently achieve some of the best GCSE and A-level results in the country, we believe education is about far more than exams. With fewer rules and no uniform, we actively nurture creativity, curiosity and a love of discovery. Our rich co-curricular programme builds confidence, encourages independence and strengthens our connection with the wider community. It's a distinctive environment - ambitious, thoughtful and forward looking - but most importantly, it is a place where people matter.

This sense of freedom extends to the people who work for us, so you can expect considerable scope to demonstrate your potential and enhance your skills.

You will contribute fully to the academic, pastoral and co-curricular life of the School, working closely with colleagues in a collaborative department that encourages ambitious, interdisciplinary and innovative approaches to art.

In return, you can expect a comprehensive package of rewards, including a pension scheme, private medical insurance after five years' service, life assurance, season ticket loan, free access to our extensive leisure facilities, free lunches, free eye tests, an advice and counselling service and a generous reduction on fees for your family.
