About the School Collingwood is one of Canada’s largest independent day schools, enrolling 1,260 students across two campuses: Wentworth (Junior School, JK–7) and Morven (Senior School, Grades 8–12). A Collingwood education provides a personalized, real‑world approach to education, building strong academic foundations in literacy and numeracy. We foster curiosity and independence, challenging students to apply skills beyond knowledge. Our diverse co‑curricular program in Academics, Arts, Athletics, and Service allows students to explore their passions and discover their unique purpose in the world. Collingwood graduates are sought after by top universities and carry forward a lifelong sense of belonging and pride. The school enjoys financial health, engaged governance, and a clear strategic outlook supported by philanthropy and robust reserves. It continues to innovate in areas such as AI integration, experiential and outdoor education informed by Indigenous partnerships, and a unique 2-5-1 trimester model at the senior school positioning Collingwood at the forefront of independent schooling in Canada. Position Overview The Board of Governors now seeks an exceptional and community‑minded leader to succeed Lisa Evans, who will step down as Head of School in summer 2026 after 32 years of dedicated service, including 17 years as Head of Morven Campus and 8 as Head of School. This is a rare and rewarding opportunity for an accomplished educational leader to shape the future of Collingwood. The next Head of School will start in July 2027 at the latest, steward Collingwood’s traditions while advancing a forward‑looking agenda that engages its present and inspires its future. Building on a legacy of academic excellence, innovation, student wellbeing, and holistic education, the Head of School will join a passionate community and together build a shared vision for Collingwood’s next chapter. Ideal Candidate The ideal candidate will be an accomplished and inspiring educational leader with strategic vision, a deep understanding of independent schools, and proven experience guiding complex organizations through growth and change. They will bring excellence in teaching and learning, strong governance and financial acumen, and experience in fundraising and long‑term capital projects. Authentic and courageous, they will build trust and cohesion across diverse communities while leading with empathy, diplomacy, and integrity. Committed to student wellbeing, faculty development, and Collingwood’s values, the next Head will lead with clarity, collaboration, and purpose. Indigenous Acknowledgement At Collingwood School, we are grateful to live, work and learn on the unceded traditional territories of the Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), Səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil‑Waututh), and xwməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam) Nations. We are committed to acknowledging, respecting, and celebrating the land, people and spirit that spans our two campuses, as we aim to cultivate meaningful and long‑lasting relationships with Indigenous communities. #J-18808-Ljbffr
