Behaviour Officer job summary
As a Behaviour Officer, you will be an essential part of our community, fostering a safe and supportive atmosphere for both students and staff.
This is a varied and rewarding role at the heart of the College's pastoral and behaviour work. You will support the implementation of the behaviour policy, oversee the Don Bosco Room, and work closely with Heads of Year, Senior Leaders and the wider Emmaus Team to support students in developing positive learning behaviours.
The Don Bosco Room is a calm, purposeful space where students can be supported to de-escalate, reflect on their choices, and take part in restorative conversations with staff. As Behaviour Officer, you will manage this space day-to-day — creating an environment in which students feel respected and where work continues even when they are not in their normal lessons.
Beyond the Don Bosco, you will work alongside colleagues to track and analyse behaviour, manage detentions and associated administration, support the investigation of more serious incidents (including reviewing CCTV), and mentor students who need additional help to develop positive learning behaviours. You will also manage the MDSA Team, ensuring that lunchtimes are calm, safe and well-supervised.
The successful candidate will be a strong communicator with excellent interpersonal skills, able to build positive relationships with students, parents/carers and colleagues. You will be empathetic and patient, but also confident in upholding high expectations and applying the behaviour policy consistently and fairly. You will contribute significantly to shaping our school's culture and ensuring that every student feels valued and respected.
If you are enthusiastic about helping young people make positive choices and thrive in their learning, we would love to hear from you.
