Bilton Grange is a happy, flourishing and successful Prep School set in 90 acres of beautiful grounds just south of Rugby. In 2020 it merged with Rugby School and is now part of the Rugby Schools Group. Pupil numbers have never been higher. There are over 380 boys and girls, boarding and day, in the school aged between 3 and 13 and the school's distinguished history is continuing to evolve. In August 2022 we opened Little Grange Nursery, placing a further 80 children under our watchful care and guidance. The current Head has been in post since September 2021 and in March 2022 we were successful in our ISI Compliance Inspection.

Applicants will need to be able to build excellent relationships with young people, be supportive and caring. The post also calls for good communication and organisational skills, IT literacy, the ability to remain calm under pressure and a flexible approach to duties.
