Every school has students who need extra support to succeed.
The difference is having the right person to guide them, challenge them, and help them get back on track.
We're working with a welcoming secondary school in the M30 area of Manchester that is looking to appoint a Behaviour Manager on a full-time, permanent basis from September 2026.
This is a rewarding opportunity for someone with a strong pastoral or behaviour background to take ownership of the school's Reflect (internal exclusion) provision, helping students make positive choices and successfully reintegrate into mainstream lessons.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
✔ Full-time permanent position
✔ September 2026 start
✔ Leadership role within the pastoral team
✔ Opportunity to make a genuine impact on students' lives
✔ Supportive leadership and collaborative staff culture
About the School
This successful secondary school is committed to creating a calm, respectful, and inclusive learning environment where every student is given the opportunity to thrive.
Pastoral care is central to the school's ethos, and staff work closely together to ensure students receive the support, guidance, and challenge they need to achieve their full potential. Behaviour is managed through consistency, strong relationships, and restorative practice.
The Role
As Behaviour Manager, you'll lead the day-to-day running of the school's Reflect provision, supporting students who require additional intervention while helping them return positively to learning.
Responsibilities include:
Managing the Reflect (internal exclusion) room
Holding restorative conversations with students
Supporting behaviour interventions and reintegration plans
Working closely with Heads of Year and pastoral teams
Liaising with parents and carers
Monitoring behaviour records and identifying trends
Promoting positive behaviour across the school
About You
We're looking for someone who has experience working within pastoral support, behaviour management, inclusion, youth work, or a similar role.
You'll be calm, resilient, and confident building positive relationships while maintaining high expectations. Experience using school MIS systems would be an advantage.
