Our Student Development Champion's (SDC's)are non-teaching team members that provide the support to enable our learners to overcome barriers to learning. This is a unique opportunity to join a successful academy as part of a supportive and very hard-working pastoral team.

As a Student Development Champion, you will have responsibility for matters such as reintegrating students into mainstream lessons following removal, consistency checks, on-call, uniform, attendance and attitude to learning, phone calls home, as well as supporting pupils with their learning in order to meet their targets. This SDC role is currently based at our Lower Academy as the return to learn room lead, although Student Development Champions can be redeployed to other areas of the academy based on operational needs and their skill set.

The successful candidate will have an enthusiasm that will inspire students to outstanding outcomes.

We are an aspirational academy operating across two sites. The Lower Academy specialises in the teaching of our Key Stage 3 students, whilst the Upper Academy specialises in teaching Key Stage 4 and 5. The appointed Deputy Designated Safeguarding Lead will initially be based at the Lower Academy.
