Pastoral Support Assistant

Langdon Academy are looking to appoint a Pastoral Support Assistant to work within the pastoral team. The team is managed by very experienced and knowledgeable staff, who will be able to give the successful candidate the necessary support and training.

As a pastoral support assistant, you will work closely with other members of the pastoral team to ensure that the needs of all students are met. The role has a wide remit, where you could be dealing with attendance issues, supporting a young person with accessing their education, or helping a student with day-to-day activities within the school.

You will also have some responsibilities for maintaining accurate records, working with staff, students and parents and where necessary with external agencies to ensure that students receive first class pastoral support. We are looking for someone who puts young people first, is caring and supportive.

This is a demanding role and is not for the faint hearted. You will need to be resilient, a quick learner and able to communicate effectively with a range of stakeholders. Confidentiality is of the utmost importance in this role.

Langdon Academy is a large 4-16 school, with over 1700 students in the secondary phase, and is part of Brampton Manor Trust, along with Brampton Manor Academy, who have an enviable reputation both locally and nationally.

This appointment is an opportunity to strengthen our team further and the post would suit someone with pastoral experience.

The scale of Langdon, the fact that it also has a primary phase, and its membership of Brampton Manor Trust, provides considerable opportunity for the continuing development of our staff.
