Personal Development Lead

We are looking for a Personal Development Leader who can build strong relationships, hold high expectations and be the calm, consistent adult who notices when something isn’t quite right. You’ll get to know your year group inside out - celebrating their successes, helping them navigate the bumps along the way and working with families and staff to make sure every student is known, valued and empowered to flourish.

If you can combine warmth and humour with high expectations, stay calm when things get lively and genuinely want to make a difference, we’d love to hear from you.

The Personal Development Leader plays a key role in supporting the pastoral, behavioural, attendance and personal development needs of students within a designated year group.

Working closely with students, staff, families and external agencies, the Personal Development Leader ensures that every student is known, valued and empowered to flourish. Through strong relationships, high expectations, early intervention and effective pastoral support, the role provides visible, consistent and proactive leadership of the year group, with a strong focus on attendance, behaviour, safeguarding, personal development and student well-being.

The Personal Development Leader will take ownership of the year group, knowing its strengths, needs and priorities, and working collaboratively to ensure students are safe, supported and able to achieve their full potential.
