We are seeking an exceptional Pastoral Support Manager to join the senior management team within Restormel Academy, playing a pivotal role in safeguarding and promoting the wellbeing, attendance and personal development of our pupils. This is a highly visible, hands‑on role working closely with pupils, families, academies and a wide range of statutory and voluntary agencies to deliver effective, child‑centred support.
The post holder will be the Designated Safeguarding Lead for Restormel Academy and take a hands‑on, whole‑family approach, acting as a key advocate for pupils and leading safeguarding practice, early help and pastoral support within their assigned academy.

About the Academy
Restormel Academy is based in St. Austell in Mid-Cornwall; a region that includes some of the most socially and economically deprived areas within Cornwall.
The Academy provides a warm, caring and individualised learning experience for pupils whose behaviour has hindered their progress in mainstream school. We strive to re-engage our pupils with learning, by maintaining a calm working atmosphere, and supporting positive change in the way our pupils choose to behave.
We provide places for those young people who have been permanently excluded from school, or who are on intervention programmes because of their behaviour.
