Job description

After 16 years of outstanding leadership, St. Clement’s School’s well-respected and much-loved Principal is retiring in the summer of 2027, prompting the school to seek its next leader.

Celebrating 125 years of educational excellence, is a leading independent girls’ school in Toronto, known for its academic rigour and small, nurturing environment. SCS is a close‑knit community that treasures creativity, diversity, and innovation, where students from Grades 1 to 12 live, learn, and grow together under one roof. At SCS, every student is personally known and supported. Guided by its mission to develop outstanding women who are intellectually curious, courageous, and compassionate, the school’s approach emphasizes community, wellbeing, and empowerment. The goal is for each of the 480 students to embrace the journey of learning, not just the destination.

The Principal is accountable to the Board of Governors and will have overall responsibility for the leadership of the school, both academic and administrative. Building on a strong foundation and working in close partnership with the Board, the Principal will advance the academic program through the implementation of updated pedagogy, sharpen the articulation of SCS’s unique brand, refine the school’s approach to advancement, continue to deepen relationships with all constituents, and lead the renewal of the school’s strategic plan. The Principal fosters a warm, dynamic, and healthy school community while serving as a visible, trusted, and relational presence in the daily life of the school.

The ideal candidate will bring significant leadership and administrative experience, ideally gained in an independent school, with strong business and financial acumen, and the ability and willingness to lead the school’s philanthropic efforts. With a passion for girls’ education, they will be a curious, reflective, and strategic leader who understands how to evolve and advance pedagogy, including the thoughtful integration of emerging technologies. The Principal will be an exceptional relationship builder and communicator and will demonstrate how they have actively engaged members of their school community.

St. Clement’s School is committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion. SCS values each community member’s identity and wellbeing. The SCS community learns and grows by embracing multiple perspectives, experiences, and cultures. St. Clement’s is an equal opportunity employer and encourages applications from all qualified candidates. Accommodations will be provided upon request to support applicants with disabilities throughout the recruitment process.

Applications are encouraged immediately and should be submitted online. The search committee’s consideration of candidates will commence in late June and continue over the summer. The successful candidate is expected to be announced in the fall of 2026, and the new Principal will assume the position in the summer of 2027. Inquiries and accommodation requests should be directed to Julia Robarts and Cora Hui of Odgers at .
