Reporting to: School or Hub Lead

Are you passionate about transforming the lives of young people? Do you thrive in environments where every day is different, and every interaction has purpose? If so, we'd love to hear from you.

We are seeking a dedicated, compassionate and proactive Pastoral Lead to join our team at our Schools. This is a pivotal role at the heart of our provision, supporting the wellbeing, personal development and success of our students — many of whom have complex needs, SEND profiles, or barriers to learning.

About the Role

As our Pastoral Lead, you will play a central role in creating a safe, nurturing and inclusive environment where students can thrive. You will work closely with multi-disciplinary teams, parents/carers and external agencies to remove barriers to learning and ensure every young person feels supported, valued and heard.

Your work will include:

  * Providing daily pastoral and wellbeing support

  * Offering conflict resolution, mediation and de-briefs

  * Delivering 1:1 interventions and tutorial support

  * Supporting attendance, behaviour and safeguarding processes

  * Facilitating student voice activities including student council, questionnaires and meetings

  * Supporting PSHE delivery and whole-school wellbeing initiatives

  * Building strong, positive relationships with parents, carers and the wider community

  * Attending multi-agency and safeguarding meetings

  * Recording, monitoring and analysing pastoral data to inform student programmes

  * Providing cover and line management where required

You will be a key figure in shaping a therapeutic, welcoming environment where students feel safe, respected and empowered.

What We're Looking For

We'd love to hear from you if you have:

  * A Level 3 qualification (or above) in a relevant area

  * English and Maths at Level 2

  * Extensive experience in a pastoral or wellbeing role

  * Experience supporting young people with SEND, ASC or mental health needs

  * A strong understanding of safeguarding in education

  * The ability to remain calm, reflective and solution-focused in challenging situations

  * Experience using a range of strategies to de-escalate behaviour

  * A collaborative approach and the ability to work effectively within a multi-disciplinary team

Experience in a school, AP or college environment is desirable but not essential.
