Pastoral Support Officer

The Orme Academy is seeking to appoint a dedicated and inspirational thinker to our Pastoral Support team. The successful candidate will have an absolute commitment to working as a team to meet the pastoral needs of the individual to ensure that all learners can achieve their personal best. If you have a passion for supporting young people and helping them to break down barriers in a supportive and calm way, we want to hear from you.

Key aspects of the role:

 • Maintain and enforce the high standards of behaviour by active presence on corridors, social times, and duties.

• Supporting students and families with all aspect of school life (attendance, punctuality, well-being etc).

• Proactively anticipate student issues that could arise and intervene as necessary.

We are rated “Good” by Ofsted and remain committed to building on this success as a team. This achievement reflects the dedication and hard work of our staff, students, and wider school community. We are incredibly proud of the progress we’ve made and are excited to continue providing a high-quality, supportive learning environment where all our pupils can thrive.

The sole ethos for the school community is ‘Empowering Learners for Life’. Whilst we are committed to ensuring that every student makes excellent progress, this concept stretches well beyond academic performance. We firmly believe that every aspect of school should equip learners to be successful in all areas of their lives, both now and for their future. Indeed, every single decision or action taken improves the life chances of all our learners. This is underpinned by ensuring the Academy is a safe, nurturing and happy environment: put simply, The Orme Academy is a great place to learn and a great place to work.

This ethos applies equally to the staff. We believe in empowering our staff to be aspirational and effective leaders of learning and provide a good programme of CPD and induction to support those joining our vibrant community. This CPD includes being part of a large MAT, with its own Institute of Education (IoE) focused on the development of staff. The IoE provides access to wide range of network hubs, subject experts and access to best practice, as well as bespoke CPD opportunities. This is an exciting opportunity to join a highly professional and committed team of staff whilst also playing their part in the success and future development of our Academy.
