About the Role
We are looking for a pupil-focused, trauma-informed practitioner to lead our pastoral support team in the role of Pastoral Manager. With day-to-day responsibility for supporting pupil behaviour by responding to their needs, the successful candidate will need to be empathetic, calm, and clear in holding boundaries, with a relational approach to all interactions. As a central point of information and communication for pupils, staff and families, they must demonstrate a good standard of written and spoken English, the ability to relay information clearly and effectively and to ensure recording of communications and information is accurate and timely.
The successful candidate will be proactive, using data and information from a range of sources to promptly identify emerging pupil needs, both individually and at a whole-school level, and will work closely with the Assistant Headteacher for Behaviour and Attitudes to develop and implement strategies as required. As in any school setting, there are times where physical restraint is required to keep pupils and others safe. Our pastoral manager has a central role in the monitoring and debriefing of restraint incidents and their associated record keeping.
The role of pastoral manager requires a dedication to positive outcomes for our pupils, the ability to work as a central part of a diverse staff team and the ability to manage a varied workload effectively.
