Provide pastoral and emotional support where needed
Help maintain a safe, structured, and positive learning environment

Experience supporting vulnerable young people or adults
School-based experience preferred, though care, youth work, residential and other SEND-support backgrounds are also welcomed
A calm, patient, and resilient approach
Ability to work effectively as part of a multidisciplinary team
Travel & Accessibility
Due to the school's limited public transport access, it is strongly recommended that candidates are either local or able to drive.
The school does operate a staff bus service from select train stations, but this is not guaranteed.
