School Chaplain - The Ursuline Academy Ilford

Governors are seeking to appoint a suitably experienced and qualified School Chaplain in our thriving Catholic school. This is an exciting opportunity for the right candidate to further their career in a school environment.

The Chaplain must be a practising Roman Catholic and should have relevant experience or qualification (e.g. Catholic Certificate in Religious Studies) that suits a chaplaincy role in the Catholic Church, with a mature and reassuring sense of self and vocation and a strong personal spirituality and emotional resilience.

The Chaplain will be expected to serve both staff and students. Students expect the Chaplain to be approachable and compassionate, whilst at the same time professional. The Chaplain will be someone skilled and experienced in dealing with a wide range of people, maintaining the utmost discretion and always working within the school’s Code of Conduct.
