Registered Office: Bateman Street Cambridge CB2 1LY – No. 184031 England Registered Charity No. 290180 Welcome from the Head Thank you for showing interest in this role at St Mary’s School, Cambridge. We are an independent day and boarding school for girls aged 3 to 18. We have a school roll of around 520 students. Approximately 15% of the students are boarders. Reflecting the cosmopolitan community of Cambridge, on average 25% of students originate from overseas, from around 30 countries. The School offers a secure and welcoming learning environment for girls: we are delightfully situated in the heart of the academically renowned and culturally vibrant city of Cambridge. The Junior School is adjacent to the famous backdrop of Coe Fen, and the Senior School and Boarding House overlook the University of Cambridge Botanic Gardens. Cambridge is an outstanding place to live and work. As a university city, Cambridge has the cultural advantages of a much larger settlement but with a population of approximately 145,000, it is a safe, clean and attractive location. The city has an international reputation owing to its world ranking university and the school benefits from its proximity to the digital and enterprise communities in the various high-tech science parks and enterprise hubs. We are within easy travelling distance of London, less than an hour by train and a short hop from London Stansted Airport. There has been major investment in new facilities at the School over the past decade: a new Junior School; a new Sixth Form Centre; new provision of Art & Photography; the creation of our Science Hub; and our new boarding facility, Mary Ward House. We have developed our sporting facilities through an ambitious collaboration with Homerton College, University of Cambridge and have invested in a new boat house in a joint partnership with City of Cambridge Rowing Club and Homerton College. We are proud to have opened our Mary Ward Educational Suite in which provides state of the art teaching spaces. High quality facilities are only as good as the people who work in them, so we invest heavily in our staff, who we know are our greatest asset. We encourage staff to develop themselves through training and facilitate bespoke CPD opportunities for all. St Mary’s School promotes equal opportunity for all staff and pupils and is committed to its culture of diversity and inclusion. We encourage applications from candidates from a wide range of backgrounds. Above all, St Mary’s School, Cambridge is a very happy place. We have an excellent local reputation for being very friendly and nurturing, and yet ambitious, for the young women in our care, enabling strong progress to next steps at university, the world of work or a gap year. Our girls are genuinely delightful, the teachers and support staff are exceptionally dedicated; we are a very close-knit, loving, joyful and purposeful community. St Mary’s really is a warm and welcoming environment for all staff, whatever their role, and we look forward to receiving your application. Hannah Helliar St Mary’s School, Candidate Pack V1.1 (Jan 24) Page 2 of 10 The St Mary’s Approach We are proud to be a Christian school in the Catholic tradition and founded on the principles of our 17th century foundress, Mary Ward, our vision is that ‘By God’s grace, women in time will do much’ (Mary Ward 1585-1645). The challenge for women is not over, and whilst there are now more opportunities for 'women to do much' there are still considerable barriers and so our work continues via our mission to develop curious, creative and compassionate young women with the aspiration, confidence and integrity to shape a better world for the common good. Our approach is based on the core values of Freedom, Joy, Justice, Love and Truth and we live these values in school through our HEART habits of H – Hard work E – Empathy A – Adaptability R – Responsibility T – Thoughtfulness We show perseverance and sustain focus. We are kind, joyful, generous, value friendship and celebrate diversity. We adjust to difficult situations, are open minded, discerning and take calculated risks. We act justly and strive to uphold truth and lead by example. We are creative, reflective, attentive, show gratitude, hear others and disagree well. Our unique approach to education fosters a love of life and of learning, while growing the academic curiosity and spiritual wellbeing of each individual girl so that they can look beyond themselves and enter adulthood aspiring to be more and to give more, not just to have more.

The Diocese of Ely is seeking a Rector of The Fen Edge Benefice, Cambridgeshire, serving the Parishes of Sawtry, Glatton and Holme, Cambridgeshire.
Rector of the Fen Edge Benefice
Parishes of Sawtry, Glatton and Holme, Cambridgeshire
These 3 parishes are situated close to the A1, 10 miles south of Peterborough and about 30 miles from Cambridge. Sawtry is a growing village with a population over 7000, and both primary and secondary schools; Glatton and Holme are smaller villages, with mixed populations of commuters and local workers. Agriculture is important to the life of the parishes, alongside those who commute to the major cities or homework.
The church communities have grown over the last 5 years, with growing numbers of children and young people and their families joining All Saints, Sawtry. In line with diocesan policy, we expect All Saints to become a base church for young people from the area, and will be looking for our next Rector to build on this area of ministry.
The parishes demonstrate a strong commitment to working together in pursuit of their shared mission. This spirit of partnership is actively encouraged within the Benefice, fostering a sense of unity whilst also respecting the distinct identities present among the church communities. Both contemporary evangelical with modern music and traditional worship with established hymns and liturgies are recognised and valued, supporting the different needs and approaches of each parish.
Expectations for the New Rector’s Ministry:
The Benefice eagerly anticipates the new Rector bringing their unique spiritual life skills, perspectives and passion to the role. The following aspects outline the ministry expectations and opportunities awaiting the new incumbent:
- Adaptable and Tailored Ministry: The three active parishes within the Benefice each possess distinct demographics, worship styles, and growth challenges. The new Rector is encouraged to adopt a ministry approach that is both tailored and adaptable, ensuring that the varied needs and characteristics of each parish are met effectively.
- Passion for Mission and Community Engagement: A core expectation is a genuine enthusiasm for mission, demonstrated through active engagement with local communities. The Rector should enhance outreach by employing strong communication and interpersonal skills, enabling effective interaction with groups of all ages.
- Children and Youth Ministry:Continuing and nurturing the growth of children and youth ministries is a priority. The Benefice values a Rector with a heartfelt commitment to developing these vital areas, ensuring that young people are supported in their spiritual journeys.
- Strong Relationships with Local Schools: Building on the established, close working relationships with Holme CofE Primary Academy and the Sawtry schools (Infant, Junior Academy, and Village Academy) is essential. Productive interaction with these schools and active participation in village life, with a particular focus on families with young children, are central to the Rector’s role.
- Equipping and Empowering the Fellowship: The Rector is also expected to encourage and equip members of the fellowships in their personal spiritual growth and the development of their individual gifts. By supporting church members in fulfilling their callings and sharing their faith, the Rector will help to advance the vision of ‘taking the church into the community’.
- Financial Awareness:The Rector will have an awareness of rural ministries and the challenges of maintaining listed churches to encourage our PCCs in the development of budget setting and fund-raising plans.
Our Diocese and Deanery offers:
- spacious modern rectory in quiet street
- friendly supportive chapter colleagues
- well funded CMD and support for clergy and their families
- generous and pastoral senior leadership
