John Maguire
Name: John Maguire
Title: Executive Headmaster
Organisation: The British School of Bahrain
Having been educated in a boarding school in the United Kingdom, I completed my Bachelor's Degree at the University of Leicester before completing my Post Graduate at Newcastle University. I worked at a co-educational boarding school in North London becoming part of their Leadership Team before moving to a high achieving all-boys school in North London, that was awarded School of the Year in 2017. It was here that I also completed my Masters in Educational Leadership.
In 2019 I moved to the Kingdom of Bahrain to lead a large, co-educational, school for 3-18 year olds. I believe in the importance of a holistic approach to education that develops all students academically, socially and morally through curriculum and co-curricular pursuits. The importance of the individual student and, most importantly, their happiness. I can often be heard saying that the ‘happiness and well-being of young people is the soil in which they grow’ and the key to the ongoing success of every school. The energy behind all my actions is derived from a passion for continuing to develop myself and others to be the best we can be by encouraging them to produce innovative ideas, inspired teaching and projects that positively impact colleagues, students, and the wider community, including an abundance of charity work.
This philosophy relies on the fostering of positive school culture built upon mutual trust, innovation, and development, which seeks to benefit all. The leadership of any successful school necessitates an adaptive and thoughtful leadership style. My leadership style is built upon approachability, visibility, humour, empathy, honesty, integrity and delegation, but it also demands the highest standards in all aspects of school life. Leading other members of a diverse management team to deliver high standards continues to be an important and rewarding professional challenge.
