Principal | Christian Brothers College, Fremantle (WA)
posted 5 hours ago in Education , in LeadershipJob Description
EREA Colleges Ltd invites applications for the role of Principal of Christian Brothers College, Fremantle, for commencement in January 2027.
Since its foundation, CBC Fremantle has strived to raise good young men with a strong sense of justice who are prepared to shape a better world. The College traces its roots back to 1882 when the Fremantle Catholic Boys’ School was first opened in High Street in Edmund Hall, which is still standing on the school grounds.
At CBC Fremantle we embark on a shared journey with the families of the College in the development of their sons from today’s boys into the gentlemen of tomorrow. We understand that the quality of relationships is critically important in the lives and education of our boys. For them to fully grow, it is essential that everyone they encounter at school has an interest in their development beyond their capabilities as a student. An education at CBC Fremantle challenges its graduates to be independent thinkers with the courage and persistence to confront injustice in our society. It decries the mediocrity so often prevalent in popular culture and encourages our young men to seek different and better ways to express what they believe. In short, they are encouraged to discover what has worth in this world, to place value upon it and then to strongly represent their beliefs.
The successful candidate will possess:
- exceptional credentials as a Catholic educator,
- a record of successful and highly relational leadership.
- a capacity for cultivating a culture of continuous improvement and sustainability across all aspects of the College,
- capability in both academic and pastoral areas of school life,
- strategic capacity to lead a dynamic school into the future
