Assistant Year Manager (Maternity Cover) job summary

An exciting opportunity has arisen to join our caring and dedicated pastoral team at Co-op Academy Swinton as an Assistant Year Manager.


With a passion for supporting students combined with strong behaviour management skills, you can guide our students and help them achieve the best possible outcome. Our aim is to ensure that our students are given every opportunity to reach their full potential, regardless of their background. With this in mind, we are looking to appoint an Assistant Year Manager to help support the Year Manager and who will respond to behaviour issues across the school, acting as a trusted adult and a positive role model, whilst providing consistent boundaries.

The Assistant Year Manager will work alongside the Year manager, pastoral and teaching teams to help create a positive learning environment that is supportive and nurturing. 

As well as academic success, we focus on and take great pride in our students' behaviour. We aim for high achievement in an environment which is based on rewards, not sanctions. Working closely with our teaching body, this is an exciting opportunity for an Assistant Year Manager to help and support our students through their secondary school journey.

At Co-op Academy Swinton, we pride ourselves on delivering an exceptional educational experience for our students and fostering a supportive, collaborative environment for our staff. Our academy offers a welcoming, supportive, and inclusive environment where students and staff are inspired to achieve their best. You will be working with passionate colleagues who are dedicated to challenging and supporting students in equal measure. Together, you will guide them through their educational journey, ensuring they are well-prepared for the world beyond.

Why us?

Our academy provides a place for pupils aged 11-16. We are easily commutable from all areas of the North West with Swinton train station less than a 5-minute walk away. We have a dedicated team of staff who build and share positive relationships and a caring culture with our wonderful students. This was highlighted in our recent Ofsted inspection (June 2024), where we were graded ‘Good’ in all areas.

All our values are based upon the values of the Co-op Group, which will inform our behaviours.

Self-help: We do not expect to be spoon-fed – we will try to do things for ourselves in the right way and at the right time.

Self-responsibility: Everyone should act in a responsible way around the academy site and in the local community. We take responsibility for our own learning; we want to become independent learners.

Equality: We are proud to be part of a very multicultural academy, with students from all over the world; it is important that we treat each other with respect and accept that others may be different from ourselves. We should all have equal chances to succeed.

Equity: We want to look for the best in each other. Rewarding others fairly to encourage all types of achievement.

Democracy: We will contribute our ideas to make the academy a success.

Solidarity: We can achieve more by working together, rather than as individuals.
