SCHOOL VACANCY
The Danesgate Community is a specialist setting for 5-16 year olds with social, emotional and mental health needs. Danesgate is a very welcoming and vibrant place to work and offers significant opportunities for professional development for anyone who is committed to working with vulnerable young people. We wish to recruit an enthusiastic and self-motivated Pastoral Support Worker who will be able to work under pressure and use their own initiative.
The successful candidate will work with the Pastoral Care Manager/ DSL, alongside key staff and external agencies to provide an outstanding attendance monitoring service as well as fulfilling administrative duties to support and enable the best possible attendance and learning environment for our young people. The successful candidate must have excellent Microsoft Office Skills and we would prefer someone with Arbor experience but this is not essential as full training will be given. You must have English and Maths to a GCSE level C or above.

Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
This is an exciting and challenging position, which would start as soon as possible.
The school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. We require the successful applicant to undertake an enhanced Criminal Record check via the Disclosure and Barring Service.
