Pastoral Manager

We are popular school at the heart of its community rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted with consistently positive outcomes at GCSE, our core purpose to “Inspire education and Inspire lives’. We have a strong track record in terms of examination results with excellent Progress 8, Attainment 8 and VA scores as a result of good progress from students across all key groups. We offer a broad and rich curriculum with student’s academic and personal development central to all our work. Oldbury Wells School also has an established Sixth Form (Bridgnorth Sixth Form) which gives students a clear pathway into post 16 provision.

We are seeking to employ a committed Pastoral Manager to work within the Pastoral Structure in school to support the needs of identified groups of students across allocated year groups. The Pastoral Manager will provide outstanding pastoral care and guidance and fostering positive links between home and school, working closely with parent(s)/carer(s). They will monitor the attendance and behaviour of each student in their year group, managing interventions where necessary. We are looking for candidates who will bring additional experience to a well-established team, who actively promote and understand what makes Oldbury Wells such an effective school and who appreciate and promote our inclusive school ethos. In return, we offer a school which is a great place to be and a great place to learn, where students Enjoy, Aspire and Achieve within all elements of their academic and personal development. 

Oldbury Wells is a flourishing academy, the founding school of the TrustEd CSAT Alliance which currently comprises a family of nine schools all based within Shropshire. Our Trust is committed to supporting local education and enjoys strong partnership arrangements with all local primary schools. At the center of our work is quality and inclusive education for students of all abilities; all our partner schools work closely together to support professional development opportunities which ensure all members of the team are able to develop within their role. We are located just 20 minutes from the West Midlands conurbation where we enjoy a small town location in Bridgnorth within easy reach of the Birmingham and Telford areas.
