About this Role
The Deepings School is a mixed 11-18 comprehensive school at the heart of The Deepings, a vibrant, growing community in South Lincolnshire. We have high expectations of our students during the seven years that the majority of them are part of our school family. We have equally high expectations of all parents/carers and members of staff, and we know that you have high expectations of us too. At The Deepings School, we place great emphasis on partnership and co-operation between parents, students, and staff to ensure each child receives the best possible education.
Our culture of care and positive relationships provides students with the confidence and independence they need to succeed both inside and outside school. We are also committed to ensuring that our students are positive leaders, strong problem-solvers, and develop the life-skills required to prepare them for life after school.
We are currently looking for a Student Support Officer to join our team.
