Houseparents Houseparents Appointments to take effect from September 2018 General The Downs Malvern is a busy, vibrant and successful co-educational preparatory school for boarding and day children aged between 3 and 13 years, offering an outstanding preparatory education. The school is situated in extensive, beautiful and safe grounds on the Herefordshire side of the Malvern Hills. The facilities at the school, including the boarding environment, are first class and we are able to offer each child a wide range of exciting and challenging opportunities. Further information about Boarding at The Downs can be obtained from the website at www.thedownsmalvern.org.uk/The-Boarding-House or by calling the Headmaster on 01684 544102 or 07787 817984. The Downs Malvern aims to provide a first class education in a secure, caring and disciplined environment where every pupil can fulfil his or her potential, academically, creatively, physically, socially and spiritually. Our School is committed to: • providing a broad and balanced curriculum which values academic excellence but also attaches great importance to effort, enthusiasm and enjoyment in all areas of learning and activity • promoting the welfare of every pupil by developing their confidence and self esteem, giving them responsibility and opportunities to exercise leadership, helping them to develop mature attitudes, and preparing them for their senior schools and adult lives • building a strong sense of community in which all feel valued and respected, where each has a contribution to make, and where there is a growing awareness of our common responsibility for the wider world in which we live, and especially our environment. While The Downs Malvern is a school where Christian values, ideals and practice are considered to be important in implementing these aims and objectives, it also values diversity and warmly welcomes pupils of other faiths. Our approach to learning at The Downs Malvern is to establish a secure and productive relationship between teachers and pupils, so that children acquire knowledge and, very importantly, thinking skills and individual learning styles. From the first day in our Nursery we encourage children to work imaginatively by expressing their own thoughts and ideas. Class-based teaching starts at age three in the Nursery to the end of Year 2 when subject teaching is gradually introduced, until Years 6, 7 and 8, when specialist teachers teach all parts of the curriculum. By the end of Year 8, pupils will have been prepared for the ISEB Common Entrance exam or will have taken scholarship exams. Children here have many opportunities to expand and develop their education outside the classroom in our idyllic rural surroundings and to take advantage of our wonderful facilities both at the prep school and those we are able to use at Malvern College. Lessons are delivered by talented teachers in well resourced classrooms. We prepare our pupils to move on to a wide range of senior schools; a significant proportion of our children go on to Malvern College, although our programme of study does afford parents the flexibility of choice. Our school community is a vibrant one and staff are committed and enthusiastic. The Appointments The successful applicants will lead our boarding team to ensure the best boarding provision is available for our pupils. They will be inspirational individuals who will have the responsibility for creating a nurturing and safe environment for our boarders and ensuring that our boarding provision is compliant with inspection requirements, as a minimum, and meets the needs of 21st century boarders.

A willingness and ability to contribute throughout the school to the busy life of a boarding school are also key requirements. Our boarding team offer a wide range of fun and challenging activities to broaden our pupils’ life experiences, whilst ensuring they are learning and pursuing their passions, showing empathy towards others and demonstrating moral courage and responsibility.

  • Holly House 23 Aylestone Hill | Hereford | HR1 1HR HOLLY HOUSE
    Holly House 23 Aylestone Hill | Hereford | HR1 1HR HOLLY HOUSE “It was the proximity of the property to the town centre and railway station which first attracted us to Holly House,” says Sandra Benjamin, current owner of this superb Grade II Listed Georgian house, “situated on one of the most sought after streets in Hereford just 0.8 miles from the cathedral.” Holly House is a fine example of a Georgian residence, built in 1831 and beautifully presented with a plethora of original features, possessing a real sense of history and charm. Currently run as a successful Bed and Breakfast, Holly House could easily be converted into a magnificent family home with separate guest accommodation. Situated on a highly sought after road, on the outskirts of the historic City of Hereford, with Hereford County Hospital and Hereford Train Station within walking distance. Seller Insight Originally built in 1831, the property possesses a real sense of history and period charm,” continues Sandra, “and even has a plaque on the back of the house stating its year of construction. The house has been lovingly brought back to life with tasteful restoration and redecoration, furnished with an eclectic mixture of old and new. Since moving in, I have extended the 5 bedroom house with the addition of 3 self-contained apartments to the side, which has enabled me to run a successful Bed and Breakfast business from the property.” Outside, the property has much to offer, too. “The rear garden is simply gorgeous,” says Sandra, “and though it is on the outskirts of town, it is very private and not at all overlooked.
