Abbey View School is an alternative provision school, catering for up to 48 pupils (age 11 to 16) who are at risk of exclusion from mainstream education. Abbey View School provides its students with a chance to reflect and reform within a happy, safe and supportive environment, which promotes sound emotional well-being and safe lifestyles. 

Our curriculum is designed in such a way to fill the educational gaps that our students so often have. Rather than pushing forward with a mainstream curriculum that has already failed our learners, we focus on creating something bespoke for our students.

We are seeking to appoint a Pastoral Support Worker for our unique school. Our school is unique and our learners seek connections with the adults in front of them.  The ideal applicant would have had experience working with young people who have experienced significant A.C.Es and have a passion for building connections with students who have experienced significant challenges in life.  We provide a happy environment for staff and students alike.  

We strongly encourage potential applicants to visit before applying.  To arrange a visit please contact: Nadya Mounsor, Office Manager, nadya.mounsor@abbey-view.org.uk.

Guidance about whether a conviction or caution should be disclosed can be found on the Ministry of Justice website
