Do you want to make a real difference to young people’s lives, and their wellbeing?

We are looking for someone with a passion for developing the potential of young people. The role of Assistant Head of Year provides the opportunity to support and develop our strong pastoral culture. Working closely with the Head of Year for a designated year group (those that will be Year 9 from September 2025) you will take responsibility for the pastoral care and personal development of the students.

This is an exciting opportunity to become part of a high performing team who share a passionate commitment to securing the best possible life chances for our young people. This role will require huge amounts of resilience, perseverance for the long haul and a constant drive for excellence. However, this is also a role that will be incredibly rewarding and can offer progression for the future.

You will have many opportunities to develop and share best practice to drive continual improvement, including through regional improvement networks and access to a competitive CPD programme nationally.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. We expect all staff to share this commitment and to undergo appropriate checks, including enhanced DBS checks and a willingness to demonstrate commitment to the values and behaviours which flow from the Oasis Community Learning ethos.
