Behaviour Support Lead job summary
We are looking for a passionate, enthusiastic and dedicated Behaviour Support Lead who places student’s pastoral needs and academic progress at the heart of everything. St John Fisher Catholic Voluntary Academy is an 11 – 18 school and part of the Blessed Peter Snow Catholic Multi- Academy Trust. We invite applications from people who share our vision for delivering World Class Catholic education.
This is a great opportunity for the right candidate to take a pivotal role in our continued improvement journey. The successful candidate will be ambitious, enthusiastic and resilient & will have the highest expectations for the young people, staff and our wider community, underpinned by our Catholic ethos and mission and aligned with our Catholic virtues.
If you want to work in an Academy where you can make a real difference to young people’s life chances, whilst working within a partnership of Academies, committed to cooperation and collaboration to unlock talent and fulfil potential, then this post is just right for you. In return you will be supported and encouraged to develop further and enjoy a long and rewarding career working across the Blessed Peter Snow Catholic Multi-Academy Trust.
If you are considering applying for this role, I expect you will have read the Ofsted inspection report from January 2023. Since the details were published, our school is unrecognisable from the description in the report. We have since had 3 very positive monitoring visits. The students at St John Fisher are wonderful young people who deserve the very best teachers and leaders & support staff. I joined the school in April 2023 and staff have since delivered significant improvements for children across all aspects of the school, but particularly with regard to behaviour, attendance and safeguarding. This is just the beginning. It is our ambition to become the best Catholic school in Yorkshire. I would strongly advise any interested candidates to come for a tour of the school with me during the school day.
