As the Pastoral Administrator, you will be building effective relationships with parent/carers and be responsible for ensuring the effective implementation of the school’s communication policy.

Great Heights Academy Trust is a growing multi‑academy trust with nine schools in the West Yorkshire area with plans to further expand. In addition, we are home to a SCITT, Research School and an English Hub.
