Pastoral Support Officer

Our Pupil Support Officers (PSOs) play a crucial role in ensuring that our students and their families feel well supported during their time at the school. PSO's provide a range of pastoral support for students. This includes implementing strategies to ensure students attend school regularly, provide a high level of care for our student's wellbeing, and deal with behaviour incidents at unstructured times within the school day. This role will require colleagues to undertake Safeguarding training and fulfil the role of deputy safeguarding lead. Further details of the role can be accessed through the more detailed job description.

The appointed colleague will need to be resilient, able to manage the unpredictable day to day demands of the role whilst also ensuring that well considered and long-lasting strategies are implemented. Our PSOs bring a great deal of care, patience and organisation skills to the school. Above all, they are kind and have our students at the forefront of their minds. This is a great opportunity to apply for a role that is rarely advertised.
