An exciting and rare opportunity has arisen to join our school in the role of Pastoral Officer – Family Support.

Springwell School is located on the edge of the city of Southampton and is a designated day special school for children aged from 4 - 11 years.

We are a warm, ambitious, and inclusive Special Educational Needs (SEN) school committed to providing high quality education and care for children with a range of complex learning and behavioural needs. Our pupils thrive in an environment where every achievement is celebrated, individuality is valued, and nurturing relationships come first.

Our school encourages a supportive and positive learning ethos that enables both staff and pupils to work and learn together to develop their full potential, providing the highest possible standards of education and support to children, families, and staff.

The Role

We are looking for a reliable, dedicated, and empathetic Pastoral Officer working in Family Support to join our Pastoral team. This is a key role within our school placing emphasis on partnerships between our pupils, their families, and staff.

You will play a central role in removing barriers to learning through the provision of practical, emotional, and early intervention support. The post offers an opportunity to develop and maintain positive, trusting relationships, support family engagement, facilitate access to relevant services and entitlements through effective signposting, and promote pupil wellbeing through targeted family support and improved access to education.

You will work closely with the Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL) and external agencies, including health services, housing providers, benefit services and community support organisations, and must therefore be a confident, effective, and sensitive communicator when engaging with parents/carers from a diverse range of backgrounds.

Contribute to whole school strategies that promote inclusion, attendance and engagement

About You

We would love to hear from you if you are:

Experienced in working with children, and/or families in a school, education, community or support setting
Experienced in maintaining accurate, confidential records
Able to handle sensitive information appropriately
Experienced in providing practical family support
Experienced in the completion of forms and applications for benefits, housing services or support services
Able to communicate clearly and sensitively with a range of audiences
Confident in the knowledge of safeguarding and child protection principles, identifying and reporting concerns
Able to deal with challenging behaviour and provide welfare support in accordance with school policies
Committed to the importance of confidentiality and safeguarding

What we offer
