Summary

We are looking to appoint a dedicated, experienced, confident and effective Pupil Learning Mentor to work with our pastoral team at this successful special school. Applications from staff currently working in mainstream and special schools are very welcome. The post is hugely important and will provide day-to-day support to pupils who are finding it difficult to access their learning. This may be for a range of reasons and the reasons may well be different on different days! Therefore, the pupil learning mentor need to be flexible in their approach and be confident to work with pupils across KS2 to KS4. The role may include supporting pupils for a short time out of the classroom but equally may require some support in class. The aim is always on enabling our pupils to return and remain in the classroom where they can be fully included and will benefit from the high quality teaching across the curriculum alongside their peers. The pupil learning mentor will work under the direction of the Pastoral Assistant Headteachers. Please note, staff need at least 2 years’ experience of supporting pupils effectively in a learning environment. However, the school will consider applications from ECTs with a passion for supporting SEND pupils who need additional and different pastoral support. One of the great things about the school is that staff and governors are never content to just ‘sit still’. Together with the local community and the Local Authority, we are continuing to look at ways we can further develop the school to ensure we always provide the very highest quality of support for all our young people and their families. All posts will be subject to an Enhanced DBS check. It is now also a requirement for the school to carry out Social media checks on any person short listed for interview. Please note, we reserve the right to close the application early if we receive a sufficient number of applications from which we are able to appoint to the role. Interviews are planned for the week commencing 2 November - the date will be confirmed with shortlisted candidates.
