Due to expanding our pastoral team, we are looking to appoint a Student Development Champion (SDC) to join our Lower Academy. The successful candidate will have an enthusiasm that will inspire students to outstanding outcomes.
Salary Range: Band 4 FTE £30,209- £33,400. Actual starting salary £25,909 with performance-based yearly increments available.
Working weeks: 39 weeks (Term Time) and Parent/Open evening as required.
Working Hours: 37 hours per week (08:00-16:00 Mon-Thurs and 08:00 - 15:30 Fri).
Our Student Development Champions 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 focus on attitude to learning and will act as the key contact for parents of your identified student cohort. You will have responsibility for matters such as reintegrating students into mainstream lessons following removal, consistency checks, on-call, uniform, attendance, 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.
If you can engage, motivate and challenge our students to make exceptional progress, then we would welcome your application. Please download and complete our application form and return it to our Recruitment & Cover Coordinator, Olivia Faustino - recruitment@basildonacademies.org.uk
