About This Role
School Details –
At HeadStart, our mission is to ignite the intellectual curiosity of our students while encouraging them to surpass conventional academic limits. By employing passionate, dedicated, and inspiring educators, we strive to motivate all our learners to achieve their full potential and go beyond expectations. We offer a comprehensive, personalized educational experience and take pride in our status as a community school that values individual learning.
Located in the heart of Phuket Island, HeadStart earned its ‘International School’ designation in 2010 and holds full accreditation from The Education Development Trust. In our latest inspection, we received the International Schools Quality Mark (ISQM), with evaluators recognizing us as a ‘Good School with Outstanding Features.’
Our curriculum is aligned with the national curriculum of England, allowing us to provide Cambridge and Pearson qualifications at the secondary level, including IGCSEs, A Levels, and BTECs.
The main campus at Chaofah serves 1000 students and is oversubscribed in most year groups. In August 2028, we will enhance our Upper School facilities, positioning 'HeadStart College' as the leading educational institution in Southern Thailand.
In August 2023, we inaugurated a new campus in the northern part of the island, Cherngtalay. Originally a one-form Foundation and Primary school, our Cherngtalay Campus has now expanded to a three-form entry Foundation, Primary, and Secondary School (KS3 only) accommodating up to 500 students.
