WELCOME

Thank you for the interest you have shown
in joining Luckley House School as Deputy
Head Pastoral.

Luckley House is a warm and welcoming
boarding and day school. We are a
community, small enough at 370 pupils for
everyone to be seen, valued and counted but
large enough to provide a wide variety of
academic, sport and creative opportunities.

Our uniqueness lies in the combination
of our size, Christian ethos and flexibility
to meet the needs of individual pupils
and their families. We provide a distinctly
academic education that is tailored to the
individual needs of each pupil. This is offered
in the context of a broad curriculum which
celebrates the arts and sports as much as
academic achievement.

We are looking to appoint a Deputy
Head Pastoral to be a key member of
the Leadership Team, providing effective
leadership across the School community.
 The role carries delegated responsibility

for specific areas while also leading initiatives
that support the School’s vision and strategic
development. It blends strategic oversight with
strong day-to-day operational leadership.

The postholder will lead by example,
demonstrating integrity, professionalism, and
a commitment to the School’s values of Love
and Service. They will bring creativity and
innovation to the development of pastoral
care, enrichment, and operational practice.

The role demands excellent organisational
and prioritisation skills, alongside significant
responsibility for safeguarding. A clear
commitment to equality, diversity, and inclusion,
and to the wellbeing of both pupils and staff, is
central to this position.

I am delighted that you are considering applying
for this role and hope that you feel inspired to
submit an application.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Mrs Claire Gilding-Brant
Head

ABOUT LUCKLEY
HOUSE

Luckley House is a co-educational,
independent day and boarding school for
pupils aged from 11 to 18 years. Situated
on the southern outskirts of Wokingham,
Berkshire, Luckley House is set in 20 acres
of landscaped lawns and majestic woodland.
The School has a Christian ethos with a
mission and values which flow from this.

Luckley House offers a highly personalized
academic experience, tailoring its education
to the individual needs of each pupil.

The academic results at both GCSE and A
Level consistently exceed national averages,
and the majority of students secure places at
their first-choice universities.

The mission of the School is to provide an
outstanding education for boys and girls
characterised by academic excellence, a rich and
diverse range of opportunities, aspiration and
enthusiasm for life and generosity of spirit. The
School has strong traditions in music, drama,
art, debating, community outreach and sport,
and there are many cocurricular activities open
to pupils to help them develop their talents to
reach the highest possible standards.

Luckley House was formed in 1959 through the
merger of two girls’ schools: Luckley School,
founded in 1918 on the current site, and
Oakfield House, established in the Lake District
in 1895.  The School adopted the name Luckley
House School in 2013, and in 2015 began
admitting boys for the first time. Over the past
decade, student numbers have grown by over
75%, with boys now comprising half of the
student body. Currently, the School is at its full
capacity of 37080 students and has been given
for approval to expand to 420.

The School is committed to inclusivity,
welcoming pupils from all faiths and
backgrounds, which enriches the community
and prepares students for the diversity of the
modern world. Most students live within a
15-mile radius of the School, with many joining
in Years 7, 9, and the Sixth Form from both
independent and maintained schools. There
are 40 boarding places available, with between
35 and 40 students boarding on weeknights,
approximately half of whom are from abroad or
are weekly boarders.

Priest-in-Charge of Biggin Hill, St Mark

Job Title:

Priest-in-Charge of Biggin Hill, St Mark

Position type:

Clergy post

Parish Name:

St Mark, Biggin Hill

Area:

Bromley & Bexley Archdeaconry

Work Terms:

Full-time

Applications Deadline:

25/02/2026

Interview Date:

23/03/2026

Other Information:

The parish of Biggin Hill (pop. 12,018) is a small town - still referred to by many residents as a 'village' - on the edge of the London Borough of Bromley. It is mainly residential and surrounded by beautiful, open countryside, yet sits within just a few miles of the M25.

The Living is currently suspended to allow for the possibility of future pastoral reorganisation, but the hope is that our new priest will guide the parish towards achieving its full potential and the suspension being lifted.

The ideal candidate will be:

• A prayerful and practical leader, keen to develop the prayer life of the congregation;
• Able to work collaboratively with our enthusiastic ministry team, and have experience enabling others in their discipleship;
• Comfortable leading a wide range of worship styles;
• Creative in extending the use of our church space and facilities;
• Willing to work with a team to establish a Youth Group.

St Mark's Church was dedicated in 1959 and is Grade II Listed.  A complete refurbishment of the lighting has recently been completed, enabling a range of lighting arrangements for traditional worship, concerts and other community events.  The modern audio-visual system enables Parish Communion services to be live-streamed and recorded, which is very popular.  
The Church Hall complex is very well used by a number of local organisations, with a large hall, separate lounge, well-equipped kitchen, meeting room and office.
The adjacent Vicarage is a 4-bedroom family home with a separate study, double garage and good-sized garden providing private and well-screened accommodation.

Sunday Worship takes place at 10.30am, with an All-Age Family Service on the first Sunday and Parish Communion services on other Sundays (USA 50-55). Worship is supported by a choir and band or keyboard player with a mix of hymns and songs. A said Midweek Communion takes place on a Wednesday morning (USA 12). There are also a number of special services held throughout the year. Full details can be seen in the accompanying Parish Profile.

Biggin Hill is renowned for its contribution to WWII when the RAF base within the parish played a key role in defence of Britain. Our priest also acts as Chaplain to St George's RAF Memorial Chapel, taking one service per month in the Chapel as well as supporting and working alongside their ministry team.

You will be supported by an enthusiastic and experienced PCC, a part-time paid Administrator, an LLM-in-training, a Pastoral Visiting Team, and a large number of volunteers who all play a part in regularly organising and planning church activities and outreach (including five who have completed the Hearing and Speaking God's Word course and able to lead worship and/or preach).

For an informal discussion with the Archdeacon of Bromley & Bexley, The Ven Allie Kerr, about this post, please contact her EA, Fiona Porter, by emailing fiona.porter@rochester.anglican.org

The wider a group’s diversity, the smarter, wiser, and more compassionate and creative its decision making becomes. We are committed to achieving diversity throughout our Diocese by seeking UKME/GMH colleagues and those from a wide-range of backgrounds, to help us create a culture of inclusion and belonging.
