Right heart

The most important qualifier is a head of school who gets the bigger picture and has the right energy. We test for that.

Right experience

Any educator will tell you each school has unique challenges, and it’s not always a “years of experience” solution.

Right method

If you found NextEd, you likely started searching on your own. It’s no small task, but the right method makes it easier.

All roads lead to talent

Head of School search

NextEd asks the right questions, probes the right depths of the school’s mission, and helps the Board recruit, assess and place the right leader.

Succession planning

Your best chance to find a great leader is to have a great plan set in place. Don’t wait for an open seat to start thinking about your next head of school.

Recruitment app

Coming Soon!

NextEd is in the final stages of testing for our new recruitment app. It is a simple and accessible way for school heads and HR teams to find eachother and get hiring.

Interim leadership

Sometimes moves need to happen before the next move is set. We help maximize transition periods to ensure a thriving school is placed in the next leader’s hands.

Recruitment and placement

Looking for a less immersive experience for your HOS search? We’re happy to focus solely on the talent side if your strategy is in a good place.
