Pupil Support Officer - Behaviour job summary

We are a unique, small, rural 11-16 academy in the beautiful setting of North-West Worcestershire. Our pupils are happy, well behaved and proud of their school. The academy has a strong vein of moral purpose where the child is at the heart of all we do. We invest in our pupils and our staff to ensure all are supported to be the best they can be.

We are looking to appoint an organised, resilient, and committed Pupil Support Officer to start with us in January. This post sits within our support staff structure and will be line managed by the Senior Leader with responsibility for Attendance and Behaviour. The successful applicant will be passionate and committed to delivering an inclusive experience for our pupils.

The post holder will play a vital operational role in supporting pupils who require bespoke and targeted behaviour support. THOA is an inclusive school at the heart of our community, and we work hard to ensure pupils are supported in whatever ways possible, in order to access a broad and balanced curriculum, allowing them to be the best they can be. When barriers present, stopping pupils from achieving this aim, the postholder will work with pupils, teachers and families to break down these barriers through internal and external interventions to get them back on track and achieving highly again.

The postholder will be working with some of our most vulnerable and challenging pupils to help them navigate their personal difficulties. The successful applicant will need the right mindset and positivity to be successful in this role, always believing that our pupils can achieve more, exploring every opportunity for support.

Training and support will be provided based on the successful postholder’s experience and skills.

Our new colleague will also benefit from being part of Ormiston Academies Trust, a MAT of 43 primary and secondary academies. The Trust’s vision is for all young people to have access to the highest academic, social and practical skills required to achieve their full potential. OAT support all staff so that they can enhance and develop their professional skills whatever their role within the trust.

Ormiston Academies Trust is an ethical sponsor, committed to improving the life chances of young people. We share their vision for all young people to have the highest academic, social and practical skills to allow them to lead a fulfilling life.

We would encourage all prospective candidates to visit the academy to tour and meet with other members of the staff and our pupils. I also encourage you to visit our website; take a look at our Facebook page and email Christine Sheppard (csheppard@tenburyhigh.co.uk) if you have any specific questions or to book a tour of the school.
