This full time non-teaching role is fantastic for individuals with experience within pastoral roles and those who have a passion for making a difference within young people's lives.

We are working closely with a mainstream secondary school based within the B13 area of Birmingham, to appoint an experienced and dedicated head of year to join their passionate and dynamic pastoral team from September 2026.

This role is a long term, full time role with the view to be permanent for the right candidate.
