The Brant Haldimand Norfolk Catholic District School Board is seeking applicants that are committed to the Catholic faith, community, and culture. Ideal applicants will build relationships and develop people and lead instructional programming by setting high expectations and monitoring effectiveness of instruction.

Our Principals and Vice-Principals must have a commitment to the ideals of Catholic schools; a collaborative leadership style; good written and oral communication skills; strong interpersonal skills; and a sound knowledge of and experience with the Ontario Curriculum.

Principals and Vice-Principals will set direction by building a shared vision which is aligned with the Boards multi-year strategic plan; developing their organization through collaborative cultures; and, securing accountability to parents, students, the community, and the Board.

The Brant Haldimand Norfolk Catholic District School Board will review applications for candidates to be placed in a pool for both Principal and Vice-Principal positions.

The pool will be maintained for the Elementary Principal and Vice-Principal positions, which may become vacant at any time. Successful candidates will remain in the pool for a period of two (2) years upon date of appointment to the pool. The Board will assign candidates from the pool to vacant Principal and Vice-Principal positions, giving consideration to the school community.

The Brant Haldimand Norfolk Catholic District School Board offers a Christ-centered education to over 13,000 students from Brant, Haldimand, and Norfolk counties, the City of Brantford, Six Nations of the Grand River and Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation. The district has approximately 2,100 full and part-time staff committed to supporting Belonging, Teaching and Learning, and Wellness for all.
