Are you passionate about transforming the life chances of young people? Do you want to join a highly committed pastoral team on a journey towards excellence?

Melbourn Village College is seeking a skilled, motivated and compassionate Behaviour Intervention Lead to join our ambitious pastoral team, a group of dedicated professionals working collaboratively to drive exceptional standards of behaviour, inclusion, and care across the school.

As part of this team, you will take a central role in delivering high-quality behaviour interventions and running a reset provision. You will support students who are consistently removed from lessons, help them regulate and reflect, and work proactively with colleagues to reduce repeat behaviours. This role sits at the heart of our collective pastoral mission to ensure every child feels supported, valued and able to succeed.

You will work daily alongside our wider pastoral and SEND team—contributing to a cohesive and aligned approach to behaviour culture.

We are looking for someone with expertise in behaviour support, emotional regulation, and restorative practice. Experience in a PRU, SEMH provision, or specialist SEND environment is an advantage, but we welcome candidates with a strong skillset, drive, and commitment to working with children at risk of exclusion.

This is an opportunity to shape a newly created role that will make a profound difference to students who need it most.
