It is predominantly a student facing role working with colleagues to support our students to succeed and achieve. The role will assist in implementing the behaviour management systems in school, including being ‘on call’ and collecting students from classrooms. It will also include contributing to the smooth running of our internal behaviour intervention room, including supporting and intervening with students. Staff will also be assigned to a year group to promote positive working relationships between school and home. Adopting a confident and compassionate approach, you will provide students with information, advice and support to enable them to make positive decisions in relation to their attitude to learning, progression, behaviour, punctuality attendance. The successful candidate will need excellent communication skills and experience of working with students aged 11-16 years. The successful candidate will also need to establish productive working relationships with students, acting as a positive role model and setting high expectations, as well as working closely with teaching staff and pastoral teams. If you want to work in an inspiring, fully inclusive environment with students who want to succeed and alongside friendly, supportive staff, then we want to hear from you! You will join a passionate and dedicated team, a school with strong leadership, and a Trust who is committed to providing professional development and opportunities for all colleagues. This role requires candidates to have GCSE English at Grade 4 or above (or equivalent). The successful candidate will be expected to provide evidence of their GCSE certificates.
