Behaviour Support Manager job summary

We are seeking an exceptional, resourceful and highly professional colleague to take day-to-day responsibility for the School’s Reintegration Room, supporting a small number of students who at times need additional help to meet our very high expectations for behaviour and successfully reintegrate into lessons. The successful candidate will bring calm authority, sound judgement, strong professional boundaries and excellent interpersonal skills, creating a structured and purposeful environment in which students are supported to reflect, re-engage with learning and reintegrate successfully into school life. Working closely with pastoral, safeguarding, SEND and teaching colleagues, the role also requires strong organisational skills to coordinate work, maintain accurate records and support associated pastoral and administrative processes. This is a significant and rewarding role for someone who can combine consistency and high expectations with empathy, professionalism and a genuine commitment to improving outcomes for young people.

We are proud of our strong, dedicated staff and warm community spirit, and we believe this role would be an ideal next step for an individual who thrives in a busy, high-achieving setting and who values professionalism, discretion, and a collaborative approach. For someone with appropriate experience and a desire to contribute to a school that consistently sets the bar high, this is a superb opportunity to develop further and make a lasting impact.

Bourne Grammar School is a high-achieving selective grammar school with a strong reputation for academic excellence and a supportive, inclusive ethos, where pastoral care lies at the heart of our community. Our vision is to inspire and empower everyone to believe, grow and succeed together, and this underpins everything we do. With a clear mission to provide the best atmosphere and the best support, we strive for the best results—defined not only by academic success, but also by the personal development and wellbeing of our students. As an employer, we ensure strong professional development opportunities and encourage staff to identify ways in which they can improve and develop.

Why join Bourne Grammar School?

• A strong culture of professional collaboration and support across departments
• Opportunities to contribute to trips, enrichment activities and the wider life of the school
• Free access to our on-site fitness suite
• Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) through BUPA, offering confidential advice and support for personal, financial and mental wellbeing

The vast majority of Year 11 students transfer into our Sixth Form where students are offered a choice of 26 A-Level subjects.

The best atmosphere, the best support, the best results

This is our purpose statement - we have no long or complicated mission statement. The order of the purpose statement is deliberate; we believe that if we get the atmosphere and support right then, given our able students and committed staff, good results will follow. The atmosphere is special and cherished by us all and something that interview candidates often remark upon. We are a large and busy school and our students are well-behaved, motivated and want to be here and their parents/carers want them to be here. Most of the students, most of the time, want to learn and enjoy lessons which are well-taught and engaging.

The teaching staff body numbers around 100 teachers supported by 40 non-teaching colleagues. All teaching staff are subject specialists and are only required to teach their own subject. Staff absence is very low, as is staff turnover. Staff who do leave often do so for promoted posts. All teaching staff at Bourne Grammar School are issued with a laptop and other benefits including no breaktime, lunchtime or bus supervision duties and free on-site parking. Tea and coffee are freely available in our two large staffrooms.
