Job overview
Lunesdale Learning Trust are looking to appoint for a new role to support students across both of our schools to facilitate opportunities for emotional health and wellbeing support, development and improvement.
The role of Emotional Health and Wellbeing Officer requires someone who can work with students and staff to develop programmes and interventions to ensure that vulnerable children and young people can thrive within their community and achieve their full potential. They will be required to work with partners and stakeholders internally and externally and engage with families and carers to deliver support.
Experience in a similar role within the education sector would be beneficial as would a strong administrative background to implement and monitor systems to record and review outcomes.

We are immensely proud of our commitment to the highest quality teaching and learning coupled with extraordinary pastoral care. We are a truly comprehensive community in which every child is cared for, supported and stretched, moving on to diverse destinations, from local apprenticeships and college courses to highly selective universities.
Building on our long successful history, we launched our sister school in September 2017 creating a small multi-academy trust of our 2 schools, the Lunesdale Learning Trust.
Applications are welcomed from well-qualified and highly motivated individuals who are keen to work with remarkable young people providing an exceptional education for all.

About Queen Elizabeth School
Queen Elizabeth School (QES), Kirkby Lonsdale, is an 11-18 co-ed, non-denominational, all ability school with a sister school, QEStudio, with its own building. We serve a large, prosperous and beautiful area of South Lakeland, North Yorkshire and North Lancashire. Although a rural school, we are only 6 miles from the M6 and well connected to main line train stations, which helps explain the outward-looking vibrancy of Kirkby Lonsdale.
Queen Elizabeth School dates back to 1591 when we were granted our charter to provide 'Scholarship and Care', a promise we continue to deliver well into the 21st century.
In September 2017 QES developed as the Lunesdale Learning Trust to incorporate a new Free School, the QEStudio providing high quality professional, technical and vocational learning to over year-olds. This is an innovative and exciting aspect of our provision in Key Stage 4 and 5 it is proving to be extremely popular with pupils and parents.

Values and vision
Most significantly the Trust is founded on core values which underpin and inform the life of the schools and promote our sense of community. These include the focus on encouraging global citizenship, remembering that life is about more than material things, looking out for others, and thinking of others who are less fortunate.
Ofsted report
"This outstanding school fully lives up to its ancient motto of 'Scholarship and Care'. The excellence that the school achieves results from the equal emphasis given to each of these aspects of its work. Parents and students are overwhelming in their praise of the school and many count themselves fortunate to be a part of it. Pressure for places is high because of the school's excellent reputation in the locality and further afield."
