Head of House

We are seeking a highly experienced individual to provide professional, high quality care for this important pastoral post within Cardiff Sixth Form College.

The role of the Head of House (HoH) is crucial in establishing and maintaining a holistic overview of the development, welfare, achievement and attainment of all students in a House. HoHs must support all students to make appropriate personal and academic progress based on an individualised approach. This involves individual guidance, meeting parents, administration and the social and community development of the House.  

HoHs form a vital part of the Pastoral Team.  HoHs need to have a good knowledge of pastoral issues and are expected to keep up to date with child protection regulations, lead on and work in conjunction with the Head of Pastoral and Vice Principal on improving support and practices.  HoHs must develop and maintain an ethos within the House that sets high expectations for students in all aspects of their work, conduct and behaviour in College and which encourages positive attitudes to College and learning, fostering high academic and personal aspirations among students.
