'This school is a truly special place. Pupils flourish here' Ofsted March 2022.

Is your perception that, as a boys’ grammar school, we will be overly traditional and elitist? Think again! If you want to become part of a calm and happy school community then Lawrence Sheriff may well be the place for you!

Lawrence Sheriff School is an outstanding boys’ grammar school of approximately 1200 students, around 450 of whom are in our coeducational sixth form. As a National Teaching School, we have played a significant role in initial teacher training and continuous professional development across the region. Our Teaching School Hub status also enables us to offer all staff varied and interesting opportunities to enhance their practice. 

We are looking to recruit a Wellbeing Mentor to assist the Wellbeing and Pastoral Manager in the daily running of the Wellbeing office to cover a colleague's maternity leave. The role involves supporting pupils in their learning and encouraging positive behaviour in and around school, assisting in the transition arrangements for pupils at the beginning and end of the school year and providing medical first aid support to pupils and staff.

The successful candidate will have experience in working with young people and have the ability to provide support through counselling skills. You will have high level interpersonal skills in order to liaise with staff and students, and the ability to communicate sensitively and tactfully with a range of people.
