In accordance with Circular 0044/2019, it should be noted that as the needs of the school continuously evolve, a review of duties may result in reassignment of the role and responsibilities within the leadership and management team.

In line with the above domains and working closely with the Principal, the duties attached to the role involve whole school curricular development, policy development, day-to-day management of resources and personnel and long-term strategic planning for the future development of the school.
The successful candidate must hold a certificate to teach religion in a Catholic school. The Deputy Principal will be expected to uphold and promote the ethos, values, and traditions of the school.
