Deputy Designated Safeguarding Leader & Complex case worker

We are delighted to be able to advertise this (rare) opportunity to join our fantastic student support & safeguarding team here at Durrington.

The role is aimed at someone who already works within safeguarding/child protection or someone working in a school in a pastoral role and looking to take the next step.   Excellent knowledge and the potential to lead others are the two most important qualities needed to make the person appointed to this role successful. 

With this role you will have the ability to form excellent interpersonal relationships with a range of stakeholders but at the same time be brave and willing to fight for what is right for the children and families you work with.  You will also be used to working at pace, have excellent attention to detail and very strong communication skills. 

Supporting our students who, for any reason, are not yet in a position to make the most of their time spent in education with us is a vital part of the role.  

As a student support & safeguarding team we are relentless in our pursuit of knowing and caring for  each and every one of our students, whatever their current situation.  Case study after case study shows what a difference this continues to make to them and their families. 

On offer to you is the opportunity to join a highly skilled, experienced and successful team and have access to an excellent program of CPD to help you learn and grow.
