The successful applicant will proactively develop and plan transitions and supportive interventions, anticipate challenges/barriers to learning and work with pastoral, teaching and inclusion staff to facilitate learning and minimise disruption. You must be proactive in your approach, working closely with parents, our staff team, and Army representatives to find workable solutions and responses to any issues arising around wellbeing and attendance, such as anxiety, low self-esteem, or difficulties with transitions. You will foster strong working relationships with parents, our staff team, and Army Welfare to ensure a coordinated and effective approach to supporting our Service Pupils.
