Principal
Located in North Parramatta, approximately 30 kilometres from the centre of Sydney, Tara Anglican School for Girls is an ELC-12 day and boarding school of around 900 students which offers the IB Primary Years Programme (ELC–6) and the IB Middle Years Programme (7–10) as well as the NSW Higher School Certificate in Years 11–12. In 2022, Tara celebrated its 125th anniversary.
Christian faith is integrated into all aspects of School life, including the curriculum, pastoral programs, behaviours and friendships, and leadership development. Tara’s facilities are expansive, modern and well equipped, supporting both academic excellence and co-curricular participation and success. Over and above this, Tara is known for its individual knowledge of and care for each and every Tara girl.
Tara Council is searching for a faithful, ambitious, and enterprising educator and leader for Tara from Term 1 2024 and beyond, to continue the great work of the retiring Principal, Mrs Sue Middlebrook, who has been Tara’s inspirational leader for almost 15 years. Council would love to meet evangelical Christian candidates who are optimistic, resilient and enthusiastic, with demonstrated communication and relationship building skills, competence in dealing with the many complex situations which arise in a School and student context, who is committed to excellent teaching and learning and understands the financial aspects of managing the resources of an independent school.
Please obtain information about the position by calling the consultant assisting the School, Kathy McLean, of Fish & Nankivell, on 0414 376 698.
A concurrent search is being conducted.
