Make a Difference Every Day

At Oasis Academy Don Valley, we believe every young person deserves the opportunity to thrive, regardless of the challenges they face. We are seeking an exceptional Senior Pastoral Manager – Internal Exclusion to play a pivotal role in supporting students to overcome barriers, re-engage with learning, and achieve their full potential.
