Our ethos

At Haileybury, our profound belief is that ‘every student matters, every day’ (Dr. Robert Pargetter).

• We strive to instil a love for lifelong learning and to achieve the best outcomes, developing high-achieving students who are connected globally, to each other and to the communities in which they live and will serve.
• We set the highest standards of academic achievement, intellectual growth, ethical awareness and behaviour, sportsmanship, athletic endeavour, and service to others.
• We provide exceptional opportunities to deserving students from diverse social, geographic, ethnic, and socioeconomic backgrounds.
• We pursue excellence across every aspect of our School, from administration, facilities management, finance and ICT to HR, transport, marketing and compliance.

To maintain this, we look to attract, develop and retain excellent and diverse professional talent.

• We seek educators who are passionate about and excel at their subjects, who display exemplary teaching and collaborative practice and who demonstrate the highest professional standards.
• We want teaching staff who care deeply about students and are adept at building formative relationships, and who can nurture a student’s spirit and challenge their mind.
• We look for people who care passionately about building and maintaining an exceptional working and learning environment, one that fosters a strong community spirit, and ultimately the best possible outcomes for our students.

Why is Haileybury a great place to work?
