The Castle School requires an enthusiastic and patient individual with a strong communication and administrative skill to join our pastoral team as our Pastoral Support Officer as soon as possible.

The Pastoral Support Officer will be responsible for providing support to students with their emotional health and wellbeing, improving student behaviour for learning so that they are able to achieve and attain well in lessons as well as develop social skills.
