'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. The school is both a Teaching School Hub, and Language Hub Lead School, and this enables us to offer all staff varied and interesting opportunities to enhance their practice.

We are looking to appoint a Lead Wellbeing Mentor and Deputy Designated Safeguarding Lead with excellent organisational and inter-personal skills to support and enhance students’ emotional wellbeing and mental and physical health on individual and wider level.

The successful candidate will support students with a range of pastoral issues, act as the Deputy Designated Safeguarding Lead and liaise with external agencies and an internal structure of Tutors, Heads of House and Heads of Year and other stake holders to enhance the physical and mental welfare and wellbeing of students.
