We are welcoming applications from colleagues with experience of working as a Pastoral Leader or those with the aptitude and aspiration to be successful in this role.  Colleagues will benefit from training and support appropriate to their stage and experience to enable them to be experts in these important new roles. 

We are a Trust that has started our journey towards excellence.  We are looking for colleagues who will delight in moving schools forward with their enthusiasm and dedication.  Our local communities and families deserve to be served by excellent staff who enjoy working in a dedicated team.  We believe that our small Trust has the best combination of a family feel whilst still offering progression opportunities across a number of schools.

The workload and wellbeing programme is in its infancy.  For the successful candidates, we currently offer free wraparound care for employee children and grandchildren in our schools and are due to implement wellbeing weeks during 2026.  Our refurbishment programme is underway which will lead to inspiring environments for all staff and children.  We are looking forward to meeting dedicated colleagues who will benefit from our School and Trust offers.

We strongly encourage visits so you are able to see our schools in action.  To book a tour, please send an email to: HR@Discoverymat.co.uk

We may close this advert earlier than advertised if we find a suitable candidate before this date.  We all look forward to welcoming you.

Discovery Multi Academy Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. This position is subject to an enhanced DBS check, online searches and other pre-employment checks.
