Are you an aspiring leader, wishing to drive forward our pastoral provision at Sir Thomas Wharton Academy?
This is an excellent opportunity for a suitably qualified, ambitious and aspiring leader to join our team to lead the personal development, welfare and achievement of our young people. We are looking to appoint a colleague with the right skills, personal qualities and attributes to inspire engagement in learning and lead a team of pastoral welfare managers to deliver the very best care, guidance and support.
The Senior Pastoral Leader will provide high quality pastoral care, support learning and offer guidance for students by identifying and removing barriers to learning and promoting health and wellbeing to secure positive progression routes. Working to build a team ethos, the successful candidate will liaise with staff, parents/carers and multi-agencies to ensure that students develop the necessary emotional, social and physical resilience to engage successfully with learning.
This post would provide an excellent leadership responsibility for new or longer established candidates. The Trust also offers the potential for suitably qualified graduates to progress into teaching in the future.
This post involves working with children and therefore if successful you will be required to apply for a disclosure of criminal records check at an enhanced level. Further information about the Disclosure Scheme can be found at www.gov.uk/disclosure-barring-service-check

Sir Thomas Wharton Academy is a good secondary school of over 1100 students with a thriving and growing collaborative Post 16 provision. The Academy joined Maltby Learning Trust on 1st April 2017 and secured an OFSTED Good judgement in September 2021. We are now oversubscribed each year and we are very fortunate to be housed in a new building with state-of-the-art facilities.
We pride ourselves on the aspirational, supportive, and caring community we have at Sir Thomas Wharton Academy. Our team of dedicated staff ensure that students feel safe and receive the best pastoral and academic support and challenge throughout their time in the school. We further develop the cultural capital of students through a comprehensive programme of extra-curricular activities and broader enrichment opportunities.
We take an inclusive approach that maintains a focus on the wellbeing and progress of every child; we provide a safe place for learning through the application of our positive behaviour system and attention to individual student circumstances and needs. We firmly believe that students will ultimately achieve better results by establishing a positive and supportive partnership between parents/carers and teachers.
Our students are our biggest strength, they are honest, hardworking, aspirational, and willing to take themselves out of their comfort zone.
Our outcomes have significantly improved, this has been realised in part through a relentless focus on the six key drivers of:
· The Highest Standards
· Invest To Achieve
· Everyone Is Valued
· No Excuses
· Never Give Up
· Cultivate Your Character
