We are seeking to appoint a committed and dynamic Learning Mentor with relevant qualifications and proven experience of working with young people, particularly those facing emotional, behavioural, pastoral or safeguarding challenges. The successful candidate will play a crucial role in supporting pupils to overcome barriers to learning such as attendance issues, behaviour, family circumstances and social or emotional difficulties, enabling them to achieve their full potential and engage fully in school life.
You will work closely with identified students through one-to-one mentoring and small group interventions, developing tailored action plans and promoting self-esteem, resilience and positive behaviour. The role requires the ability to quickly identify pupils at risk of disengagement, build strong, supportive relationships, and liaise effectively with staff, parents and external agencies. The ideal candidate will have excellent interpersonal, organisational and communication skills, a strong commitment to safeguarding, and a genuine passion for improving outcomes for young people.
We can offer the successful candidates an opportunity to work with highly trained and supportive staff, as well as a whole school commitment to professional development, since we believe that staff development is a fundamental aspect in raising standards further for our students. Our school community is also a highly rewarding place to work. A comprehensive programme of CPD and a commitment to wellbeing support colleagues at all career stages; through the School and the Trust, we provide excellent career opportunities for our staff. Colleagues seeking a varied, challenging and rewarding career can find this in the Wade Deacon family.
Wade Deacon High School is friendly, dynamic and innovative. Our latest OFSTED report from November 2022 described us as “an Outstanding School" in all areas, praising the school for providing pupils with a ‘first-rate education’ and an ‘aspirational curriculum’, describing pupils as ‘extremely happy’ and their behaviour as ‘exemplary’.
We pride ourselves on the quality and diversity of our curriculum, including our personal development and extracurricular provision, which not only enable our students to enjoy their learning but also allow them to be able to meet the many challenges that they will face in the future, understanding the wider world and their place within it.
Above all else, we are a school that believes that every student, regardless of their context or starting point, can and should achieve their full potential. If you believe that you have the motivation, belief and leadership quality to contribute to our future success, we would welcome an application from you.
