The School’s campus covers 20.5 hectares and is located one kilometre from the centre of Toowoomba.

It is our vision that our boys will graduate from TGS with the skills to be independent, well-balanced, and successful in life.  That they are boys of good character who respond well to challenges and achieve life-long wellbeing. 

TGS is one of the largest and most well-established boys’ boarding schools in Australia, with boarding dating back to 1877.

About the Position

Making the transition to boarding school is a momentous journey for the boarder and his family. Corfe House is home to our youngest boarders in Years 5 to 7.  Each boarding house is led by a Head of House who lives with their family in accommodation within the boarding house. This close proximity allows each Head of House to supervise the boys as they would in a home environment, and to form strong connections with each boy.  The role of Head of House – Corfe is is open to both teaching and non-teaching applicants who have extensive boarding experience.  

Boarding Head of House is a key appointment in ensuring that the School fulfils its essential pastoral care role. Led by the Director of Boarding, the Corfe Head of House provides a supportive and aspirational environment, in which the wellbeing and interests of each individual boy are nurtured, enabling him to develop his character, and be the best he can be.

An integral part of the TGS Boarding Community, our Corfe Head of House is essential to the well-being of our boarding students. They are the people the boys will often open their hearts to. This important relationship is essential for the care of all students, including their physical and emotional well-being.

TGS provides a highly developed residential setting where boys ‘love to board’ and where academic care and leadership development are core. The Corfe Head of House role would suit an applicant who is willing to immerse themselves, and their family, into the role.

Applicants must have;

• a genuine interest in working with and mentoring young people;
• excellent interpersonal skills to liaise with students and staff;
• confidentiality and discretion in dealing with sensitive issues;
• be a team player with a positive and professional disposition and have excellent communication skills.  

Our successful candidate will have tertiary qualifications relevant to the role and a depth of experience in working within an all-boys boarding and educational environment.

The Corfe Head of House is required to carry out supervision duties as determined by the duty roster of the Boarding House. This varies according to House staffing arrangements. In practice, the Head of House is never ‘off duty’ while there are boys in the Boarding House. Heads of House are expected to be available for contact with the boys or their parents at any reasonable time.

The Heads of House live onsite and is provided with a self-contained three-bedroom residence attached to the Boarding House.  Domestic assistance of 3 hours per week is provided during School term time.
