CHAPLAIN
The role of Chaplain at the Royal Hospital School is an excellent opportunity for an ordained minister of the Church of England to play a major pastoral role in our busy school community, by leading the spiritual life of the School, and affirming the Christian foundation within a richly diverse, multi-cultural and multi-faith community of boarding and day pupils.
Applicants should have a strong pastoral heart, an enthusiasm for working with young people and a keen desire to develop and support the spiritual life of the whole-school community. The Chaplain is responsible, alongside the Senior Leadership Team, for the spiritual leadership of the School.

The successful applicant will be expected to take an interest in the wider school community of parents, alumni, and partner organisations, encouraging kindness, compassion and charity, and supporting the spiritual life of the whole community.
