Framlingham College is a co-educational boarding and day school which comprises the Prep School, in the beautiful surroundings of Brandeston Hall, and the Senior School which is set in stunning surroundings in the market town of Framlingham. Curiosity and inquiry are at the heart of a vibrant learning culture and at Framlingham College we believe that every child should experience the joy that is to be found in learning. A Framlingham College education aims to nurture essential skills and habits – adaptability, teamwork and good decision-making for example – by weaving them into the curriculum. We are determined to prepare our young people for their adult world.
We are seeking an experienced and dynamic Head of Cricket to join our Sports department from April/September 2025. As Head of Cricket, you will lead a team of coaches, working closely with the Director of Sport and other members of the sports and academic teams to deliver a comprehensive cricket programme. The role will involve overseeing the development and delivery of cricket at all levels and ensuring that all pupils, regardless of ability, have the opportunity to develop their skills and enjoy the game. The successful candidate will work alongside some outstanding high-level coaches already at the college, such as Level 4 Coach Chris Gange (Director of Sport) and Level 3 Coach Andy Northcote (Head of Prep PE and Games). This post allows time for the successful candidate to further their coaching qualifications through our generous professional development support.
The successful candidate will be working 45 hours per week, for 34 weeks of the year (term time plus 5 additional days during school holidays, to facilitate pre-season training) including all Saturdays in term-time.
We will offer you extensive ongoing CPD opportunities and a highly supportive working environment as well as a range of other staff benefits.
If you have a disability or long term illness that otherwise prevents you from meeting any of the essential criteria listed in the person specification, please contact us to discuss whether a reasonable adjustment can be made.
Framlingham College is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and applicants must be willing to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers and the Disclosure & Barring Service and online social media checks.
