Student Life & Community Building

Provide leadership for a vibrant Junior School student life programme that strengthens belonging, relationships, leadership, participation, and school spirit.
Develop and lead meaningful opportunities for students to connect beyond the classroom, including after-school community-building events, social activities, celebrations, and other age-appropriate experiences.
Lead the strategic development of co-curricular programmes.

Assist in the recruitment, programming, and scheduling of international GAP students.
Represent the Junior School in relevant professional networks and participate actively in major school and K–12 community events.

Student Behaviour, Well-Being & Safety

Provide visible leadership for student behaviour, safety, social-emotional well-being, and a positive and inclusive school culture.
Serve as a primary administrative point of resolution for significant or recurring student behaviour concerns, working with students, faculty, and families to establish appropriate interventions, expectations, consequences, and follow-up.
Lead the management of student behaviour on school buses, including investigation, communication, intervention, and follow-up in collaboration with families and relevant school and transportation personnel.
Support faculty in implementing consistent, developmentally appropriate approaches to behaviour management, conflict resolution, restorative practices, and student accountability.
Monitor patterns in student behaviour, incidents, and well-being to identify emerging concerns and inform proactive student supports.
Respond appropriately to student safety and safeguarding concerns in accordance with school policies, reporting requirements, and established protocols.
Contribute to admissions, student assessments and class placements.
