Pastoral Support job summary

Pastoral Support Assistants fulfil a vital role in our school support system. Working alongside an Achievement Director and Assistant Achievement Director, they provide administrative support for a year group of students. More significantly, they support students with their wellbeing, behaviour, attendance and attitudes. Pastoral Support Assistants are often the 'emotionally available adult' in so many of our student's lives and are often the first port of call for families.

This is a permanent position working 37 hours per week, 40 weeks per year and the salary will be pro-rata'd to reflect this working pattern.

The Aylesbury Vale Academy is a good school with a strong sense of purpose and achievement based upon respect, aspiration and resilience. Aylesbury Vale Academy provides a safe stimulating learning environment for children from 2 to 18 years old. At Aylesbury Vale Academy, we aim to provide an inclusive, engaging and challenging experience, leading to an education of the highest quality.

If you are adaptive and able to be flexible in your approaches, have good listening and communications skills, a positive attitude towards young people and good organisational skills, then this may be the position for you.
