An exciting opportunity has arisen for an impactful and strategic Deputy Headteacher responsible for Behaviour and Attitudes across the school.

• Lead on high standards of school uniform in line with school policy.
• Support colleagues to effectively meet the needs of more challenging student behaviour, encouraging warmth, empathy and emotional intelligence and an understanding of the individual and minimising any negative impact on learning.
• Provide expertise in supporting colleagues to prevent, anticipate and respond to potentially disruptive incidents, reinforcing positive student behaviours.
• Research and lead on clear strategies for the continued improvement of student behaviour.
• Drive a proactive approach to prevent bullying and discrimination so that students feel happy and safe.
• Advise on suspensions ensuring in all cases that their use is proportionate, legal, and justified.

• Develop strategies for effective re-integration of students following suspension.
• Lead on the development of alternative strategies for suspension.
• Lead on strategies to manage behaviour through effective CPD.

Culture & Ethos
