We’re looking for an enthusiastic Physical Education graduate to support the delivery of high-quality PE Lessons, promote active lifestyles, and inspire students to enjoy sport and physical activity.
Providing support to the residential teams to deliver outstanding pastoral care and activities for the boarders. Woldingham has 6 boarding houses, each run by a Housemistress and Assistant Housemistress.

Woldingham is a happy and successful Catholic boarding and day school for girls aged 11 to 18 and is firmly established as one of the top girls’ independent schools in the UK, outperforming many schools that are far more selective in their admissions process. Central to this achievement is Woldingham’s academic enrichment and extra-curricular programme, pastoral support and caring community. Close to London, yet in an outstandingly beautiful rural setting, Woldingham has a strong community and culture building on a proud heritage that stretches back 180 years. We are committed to an exciting future that is underpinned by fresh ideas, an innovative spirit and state-of-the-art facilities.
The Woldingham community is a rich one in which many different backgrounds and cultures are represented and many different languages spoken. This diversity is valued and respected and we are keen to welcome applications from all applicants that feel that they meet the requirements of the role, regardless of their background and culture. All job applicants will be considered solely on their ability to do the job.
Once completed, please return your completed application and cover letter to hr@woldinghamschool.co.uk. This role will close at 09.00am on Friday 20th February 2026. Interviews will take place on Friday 27th February 2026.
There is a genuine occupational requirement (as defined by Schedule 9 (Part 1) of the Equality Act 2010) for the postholder to be female. Accordingly, this post is open to women only.
Woldingham School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. An enhanced DBS report will be required for the successful candidate.
