St Mary’s School is a vibrant, nurturing and high‑achieving community where staff are valued, supported and encouraged to flourish. Our students are a joy to teach, polite, hardworking, determined, and eager to embrace every opportunity. Sport plays a central role in school life, contributing to students’ confidence, wellbeing and sense of belonging, and the Director of Sport will be instrumental in shaping a rich and inspiring programme.

This is an exciting opportunity for an enthusiastic, ambitious and well‑qualified leader who is passionate about sport and committed to developing the very best sporting provision for girls. You will oversee the strategic direction of PE and Games, support a strong and collaborative team, and ensure that every student, regardless of starting point, has the opportunity to enjoy sport, develop their skills and fulfil their potential. The PE Department has outstanding achievements at GCSE and A level, with consistently impressive value‑added results and vibrant, enthusiastic teaching groups that continue to flourish year after year.

St Mary’s benefits from an impressive range of sports facilities that support both curriculum and co‑curricular provision. Our MUGA (Multi‑Use Games Area) provides a high‑quality outdoor space ideal for netball, hockey, football and fitness training. Fully equipped with nets and floodlighting, it allows for extended training sessions and after‑school activities throughout the year. We also have two sports halls, each offering distinct opportunities:

Large Sports Hall – a versatile space for indoor sports including badminton, basketball, hockey, football, rugby and gymnastics, with the added feature of a climbing wall.

Small Sports Hall – a more intimate setting suited to activities such as dance, martial arts and multi‑sports for younger students or smaller groups.

These facilities form a central part of our thriving sports programme and provide an excellent foundation for further innovation and development led by the Director of Sport.
