    Appointment of Second in Charge Hockey

    APPOINTMENT OF SECOND IN CHARGE HOCKEY Required from 16 August 2020 (for pre-season training), and with the opportunity to attend the Summer Hockey Tour to South Africa in early July 2020 THE SCHOOL Ipswich School has been listed as one of the top 100 schools in the country and is certainly one of the foremost independent schools in East Anglia. We have recently been voted Suffolk’s top independent school (The Sunday Times Parent Power 2016-19*). We were established prior to 1399, although we moved to our present site in 1852. We have over 1,080 pupils aged between 3 and 19 and we are fully co-educational. The Lodge Day Nursery opened in January 2018 and provides the very best care for younger children aged 3 months to 3 years. The most recent Inspection of the Senior School (November 2014) rated us as excellent in all categories, a judgement of which we are very proud. The School operates a 5 day week, with representative sports played during the week and on Saturdays. At Ipswich School our key aim is to encourage pupils to realise and fulfil their potential. By treating them as individuals, providing the best possible pastoral care, and kindling a real interest in their studies, we hope that they will enjoy their education and achieve the best possible results. Our Sports programme, under the leadership of our Director of Sport, is entering an exciting new, professional phase and we are proud to have been ranked as the 26th strongest Independent Sports School in the country by School Sports Magazine last year.
