Pastoral Coach
"The best 10 minutes of my day are when I'm carrying out interventions and wellbeing check-ins with our students. These moments allow me to see the immediate impact our support has on their confidence, mood, and overall wellbeing."

Have you ever considered using your skills to change the lives of young adults in a compassionate, specialist environment?"

Reporting to the Head of Pastoral, you will help deliver high-quality emotional, social and wellbeing support for our learners. You will work to remove barriers to learning, contribute to personalised support plans, and collaborate closely with Tutors, Parents/Carers, and external professionals to ensure every learner can make meaningful progress.
