Island Pacific School is looking for a Superhero Head of School to lead an inspired team of teachers and staff in their continuing quest to reimagine middle school education.

WHAT IS ISLAND PACIFIC SCHOOL?

Founded in 1995, Island Pacific School is an

independent IB middle school located on Bowen

Island in the Vancouver area of British Columbia,

Canada. With 60 plus students in grades 6-9, the

school offers a challenging academic program,

creative arts, community service activities, and

outdoor pursuits.

Small by design, our purpose is to equip and

inspire students to cultivate their humanity.

ABOUT BOWEN ISLAND
Island Pacific School is nestled in the trees on

beautiful Bowen Island, in Howe Sound, itself a

spectacular UNESCO biosphere region.

With 4,000 full time residents, the community

of their community and their environment and

feel privileged to live in such a spectacular place

where the mountains, the forest and the sea meet.

position to support great ideas that make

for great education. The ability to be nimble,

as it relates to being a small, intimate, highly

effective team is an appealing feature of

this position. You're not caught up in any

bureaucracy; instead you're immersed in the

daily routines and connections with each

student.

By living and working on Bowen Island

you are embedded in a small, thoughtful

community surrounded by a beautiful natural

environment. The school is deeply involved in

both, creating programming that makes the

most of this unique placement. There is also

an international city only a 20 minute ferry

ride away.

I will pass on a strong foundation, deeply

embedded core values, a thriving culture

and a sound financial position." - Scott
