At Belmont Secondary School, we don't just educate—we transform futures. We're looking for a compassionate, driven, and proactive Assistant Pastoral Manager to help shape a school environment where every young person feels seen, supported, and inspired to succeed.

About the Role

We're looking for a dedicated Assistant Pastoral Manager to join our team and help create a supportive, nurturing, and inspiring school environment.

  • Build positive relationships with pupils, parents, and staff to promote wellbeing and engagement.
  • Help manage daily routines and behaviour across the school.
  • Support staff with effective behaviour management and restorative approaches.
  • Monitor pupil behaviour and wellbeing, celebrating progress and identifying areas for support.
  • Contribute to meetings, lesson observations, and pastoral planning.
  • Champion safeguarding, inclusion, and emotional development.

What we're looking for:

  • GCSE Grade C/4 or above in English and Maths (or equivalent).
  • Experience working with children or young people, ideally in a school or pastoral setting.
  • A solid understanding of behaviour for learning and how to apply it effectively.
  • Excellent communication, empathy, and teamwork skills.
  • A calm, positive, and professional approach with a genuine passion for supporting young people.

If you're ready to make a real difference and help shape a culture where every student feels supported and empowered — we'd love to hear from you.
