About the role
Pastoral Manager – Sheffield
£150-£180 per day | Full-Time | Immediate Start
CER Education are recruiting an experienced and committed Pastoral Manager to work within a school in Sheffield.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone with experience in pastoral support, behaviour, attendance, inclusion or learning mentoring who is passionate about helping young people overcome barriers to learning.
As Pastoral Manager, you will play a key role in supporting pupils’ behaviour, wellbeing, attendance and engagement, working closely with students, families and school staff to help pupils achieve their potential.
The Role
As a Pastoral Manager, your responsibilities will include:
- Providing effective pastoral support to pupils across the school
- Supporting students with behaviour, attendance, punctuality and engagement
- Building positive and professional relationships with pupils
- Identifying barriers to learning and putting appropriate support in place
- Managing and responding to behavioural incidents in line with school policies
- Monitoring attendance, behaviour and pupil progress
- Working closely with teachers, SEND staff and senior leaders
- Communicating effectively with parents and carers
- Providing 1:1 mentoring and targeted interventions
- Liaising with external agencies and other professionals where appropriate
- Promoting positive behaviour, resilience and emotional wellbeing
- Maintaining accurate records relating to pastoral interventions and pupil support
These responsibilities reflect the type of Sheffield pastoral-management experience found in your existing recruitment material, including attendance and punctuality, behaviour management, parental liaison, mentoring and external-agency support.
What We’re Looking For
We’d love to hear from candidates who have:
- Previous experience in a Pastoral Manager, Pastoral Lead, Behaviour Manager, Inclusion Manager, Learning Mentor or similar school-based role
- Strong behaviour-management skills
- Experience supporting young people with challenging behaviour or barriers to learning
- Excellent communication and relationship-building skills
- The confidence to work with pupils, parents, teachers and senior leaders
- A calm, resilient and consistent approach
- A strong commitment to safeguarding and improving outcomes for young people
Relevant school-based pastoral experience is more important than a Teaching Assistant qualification for this role.
Why Work with CER Education?
- Competitive rates of pay
- SEND opportunities across Sheffield and South Yorkshire
- Flexible and ongoing work
- Fully funded CPD and training
- £250 refer-a-friend bonus
- Access to additional benefits through our payroll partner
