KEYSTONE ACADEMY BEIJING, CHINA, HEAD OF PRIMARY SCHOOL AND DEPUTY HEAD OF PRIMARY SCHOOL (TWO ROLES)

POSITION DESCRIPTION

Keystone Academy Beijing, China

HEAD OF PRIMARY SCHOOL AND DEPUTY HEAD OF PRIMARY SCHOOL (TWO ROLES)

Keystone Academy is unique. Since it opened in 2014, it has consciously set out to be a ‘new world school’, a school that is simultaneously national and international. It brings together the best in Chinese, American and international pedagogy and practice on its campus in Shunyi District, Beijing.

Keystone is a bilingual school of 1,200 students from Foundation to Grade 12 (with expected growth to 1,800). It is fully residential in Grades 9-12, with boarding optional in Grades 7 and 8.

As Keystone starts to move beyond its founding phase, it seeks to fill these two key Primary School leadership positions (Head from July 2019 and Deputy Head from July 2019 or earlier). The positions offer wonderful opportunities for world-class educators and leaders who are fully committed to Keystone Academy’s mission and approach, who believe in the power of bilingual education, and who are attracted by the excitement and the benefits, the challenges and the tensions that come from intentionally bringing together such different cultural and pedagogical traditions. It is expected that the Head of the Primary School will be bilingual in English and Chinese.
