2 weeks ago

Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates Repton School, Abu Dhabi - Fry Campus Full time

Repton School Abu Dhabi is seeking an outstanding **PA to the Principal.**

The PA to the Principal acts as the Principal’s first point of contact with staff and parents and sets the tone for relations between the school and these parties. A professional and confidential approach to the role must be ensured at all times.

**About Repton School Abu Dhabi**

Repton Abu Dhabi is a prominent school on Reem Island in the heart of 'new Abu Dhabi'. We've been here since 2013, growing quickly due to our popularity with the local and expat community alike and our quality was recently recognised though the award of a 'Very Good' rating by ADEK with several outstanding features, which we seek to build on in the years ahead.

We follow a British independent school curriculum which incorporates elements of the English National Curriculum but which allows highly skilled teachers to develop an appropriate curriculum for an independent school in an international environment. In 2020/21 we published our first GCSE examination results that boasted:

- **44%** at Grades 8-9
- **64%** at grades 7-9
- **79%** at grades 6-9
- **100%** of students achieved 5 or more GCSE results including English & Mathematics at Grades 4-9

The whole course of study through the school is designed to develop students as independent and lifelong learners as well as encouraging a spirit of intellectual curiosity and the pursuit of knowledge. This is achieved not only by what is studied in lessons but by formal prep time and links between academic and cross-curricular opportunities, including field trips outside of school.

All aspects of our curriculum are delivered with a rigour stemming from proven and traditional teaching methods and are bolstered by the latest innovations in teaching practice.

Further to this, the school has ready access to the latest in curriculum planning, assessment and monitoring strategies and the staff regularly review their teaching practices to ensure a fresh and dynamic approach to education.

**Character requirements**:
As a school we are very proud of the culture we have built at Repton Abu Dhabi. Schools are about people and relationships and our recruitment strategy very much focuses on hiring people with outstanding character. We are protective of our culture. The following character traits are non-negotiables:

- Team Player who adds to the collaborative culture of the school
- Positive attitude, adaptable and solution focused
- A life-long learner with a growth mindset
- Humility and humour - An ability to work hard but have fun

**Skills and Experience**:
**Essential**
- Excellent command of English, both written and verbal
- Experience using MS software is essential, Adobe literate would be desirable, but not essential
- Minimum 2 years previous experience as a PA in a similar role
- Ability to handle a wide range of tasks in a busy environment in calm, professional and organised manner

**Desirable**
- Previous experience in education
