About this Role
Work where it matters most, achieve what matters more.
Be part of a team where passion meets purpose, as we work together where the challenge is greatest to change the lives and build the futures of children and young people.
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 December. 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 immediate and bespoke behaviour support and intervention. 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 to support them to overcome the immediate challenges they are facing.
The successful candidate will be working with some of our most vulnerable and challenging pupils to help them navigate their personal difficulties so 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 candidate's experience and skills.
