Head of Computer Science

Deadline Date: 02nd March 2026

Applications are invited for the post of Head of Computer Science from September 2026. This is an excellent opportunity to assume the leadership of a strong and talented department. The successful candidate will shape the department’s culture and promote the value of Computer Science in the school community. The post becomes available on account of the current Head of Computer Science taking up an Assistant Head role at a new school.

Applications will only be accepted on the application form provided by the school. This should be completed electronically. All questions must be answered. The candidate may also submit a Curriculum Vitae if he/she wishes but this is not a requirement. Applications should be submitted with a covering letter (or by email) explaining why the candidate and post are mutually suited.

Applications should be e-mailed to the Headmaster, Dr Huw Williams, as soon as possible and no later than 09:00 on Monday 2nd March. The school reserves the right to interview before the closing date if appropriate to the context of the field. Early applications are therefore very much encouraged. Applications should be submitted to: head@yarmschool.org.

Yarm School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and the successful candidate will be subject to vetting checks including an enhanced DBS check.
