Human Resources Assistant Candidate Information HEAD MASTER’S WELCOME Dulwich Prep & Senior is a single school with a shared purpose; it is divided into five distinct sections, each spanning two or three year groups, led by a Head of Section. The autonomy of the different Sections stimulates a creative approach to teaching and learning, as well as pride in the achievements of each cohort. It has helped attract very high-quality, specialised staff and enable appropriate levels of support, encouragement and challenge to be tailored expertly to each stage of a child’s development. Finally, we seek staff members who exemplify our values, serving as role models to our pupils, inspiring them, and encouraging thoughtful, compassionate decision-making. We look forward to receiving your application. Louise Davidson Head Master As the Head Master of Dulwich Prep & Senior, it is my honour to introduce you to our remarkable school. For over 140 years, we have inspired boys aged 3 to 13, along with Nursery-aged girls, to pursue their dreams. In September 2025, we expanded our provision to serve boys up to age 16 by opening our new senior school. Our first Year 9 cohort began in September 2025, and we will naturally grow, with the first group sitting their GCSEs in the summer of 2028. Since 2023, our co- educational Nursery (3+) has welcomed Fledglings (2+), now covering ages 2 to 4 years old. From Reception onwards, we are a boys-only school. We are privileged to have developed a specific pedagogy that fosters critical thinking, exploration, and strong communication skills while recognising that each child is on their own journey of discovery. Our commitment to nurturing the whole child ensures a diverse and enriched education, helping pupils achieve beyond expectations. Embedding the Dulwich Prep & Senior Values is crucial for developing the character skills needed in today’s fast- paced world. These values promote empathy and compassion, essential for resilience and success in any endeavour, both during and beyond their educational journey. Our partnership with parents and guardians is key to the school’s success. ABOUT US Located in Dulwich, a picturesque village known for its exceptional schools and abundant open spaces, our school benefits from its proximity to one of the world’s most cosmopolitan cities. We are situated across two sites covering 29 acres, including extensive sports fields and woodland, which enables the school to offer a unique blend of a country atmosphere in a suburban setting. Dulwich Prep & Senior has been a leading school in England since 1885. Throughout the years, countless boys and Nursery-aged girls have benefited from our school’s rich history and forward-thinking approach. We have always embraced change, kept pace with pedagogy and technology, and, most importantly, are passionate about each pupil and staff member’s individual journey. We enrol over 800 pupils aged 2 to 16. Our selection process is two-fold: we look for pupils who generally rank in the top 20% nationally based on standardised tests, but more importantly, we seek children who will thrive and make the most of all that our school has to offer. We take great pride in inspiring excellence with our Values ethos permeating every aspect of our curriculum and co-curricular activities. Academic excellence is a top priority, with 12 essential skills taught for success in education and beyond. Along with the Values, these 20 attributes empower boys to thrive in any future they choose. Expectations are high! We develop independent thinkers who make decisions based on empathy and compassion, which leads to their success and resilience. Our Governors play a crucial role in maintaining Dulwich Prep & Senior’s position in a competitive market. Their expertise enables us to offer an innovative and challenging curriculum within a high-quality learning environment, achieved by attracting excellent staff, implementing up-to-date technology, and continually improving our modern facilities. Dulwich Prep & Senior provides a well-rounded education focusing on academic excellence, character development, and personal growth. We strive to nurture boys to become confident, compassionate, and prepared to make a positive impact on the world. For the boys attending this school, their journey goes beyond exam preparation; it prepares them for life. OUR VALUES Our eight values are the heart of our school and provide a powerful educational framework as well as being strong values for life. By demonstrating Love, Courage, Gratitude, Humility, Justice, Service, Self-Discipline, and Honesty, our pupils gain greater insight into themselves, others, and the ever-changing world in which they live. We have formed four value pairings, each with an emotive statement that together encapsulate the spirit of Dulwich Prep & Senior, making our values truly unique to our school.
