Required Immediately.

We are looking to appoint a highly motivated and change making individual to join our brilliant pastoral team in supporting the work of The Foundation@Belvedere, our innovative Behaviour and Inclusion Centre.

This is an excellent opportunity for a dynamic, forward-thinking individual who is passionate about supporting children with SEMH and their families to access mainstream school.

The Foundation@Belvedere has attracted local and national interest since its opening in September 2024. It now forms part of the Belong Project, a multi-agency pilot, part-funded by the Local Authority. You would be part of our team, which includes two Family Help Workers, a counsellor and dedicated teaching staff, in helping to ensure our young people and their families receive the appropriate support they need in a timely fashion.

In 2007, Belvedere was the first independent school to become an academy and is continuing the traditions and standards of its predecessor school. We have high expectations of all our students and we support them with excellent pastoral care. Our extensive Enrichment programme allows pupils to develop into well rounded individuals. In March 2025, Ofsted judged us Outstanding in Behaviour and Attitudes and in Personal Development. We were delighted that they recognised how our “ambitious” curriculum inspired our pupils to be, “ambitious for their futures” within an “inclusive” community in which pupils “can be themselves”.

Children of our staff have a higher priority in our Y7 admissions process - please see the Admissions Policy on our website or call the academy office for further details.
