Assistant Headteacher (Pastoral)
Are you ready to make a lasting difference in the lives of young people? At The Bridge Short Stay School, we provide second chances and transform futures – we are now seeking an exceptional and inspirational leader to help shape this journey.
L3 – L7 (£54,393 - £60,145)
The Bridge Short Stay School are looking to appoint an exceptional individual to fulfil the role of Assistant Headteacher. As the senior pastoral leader within school, the successful candidate will lead our approach to safeguarding, attendance and wellbeing, ensuring every child feels safe, supported and ready to succeed.
The Bridge works with students who have been permanently excluded from schools across Cheshire West and Chester. Rated as ‘Good’ by OFSTED in May 2018 and 2024 we are passionate about providing a second opportunity to students who have struggled in education previously. Many of our students have gone from complete disengagement with their previous schools to re-engaging with learning, achieving strong GCSE or successfully reintegrating into mainstream education. This is the difference you will be part of.
The successful candidate must believe in the potential of all young people whatever their background and be able to demonstrate a commitment to supporting the growth and development of students who demonstrate challenging behaviours. They will be joining a school where this is an ethos shared by all, ensuring a positive and supportive culture amongst our experienced staff team.
Pastoral care of our students is of equal importance to our school community as the curriculum and teaching &amp; learning. Getting this right for our students is often an essential precursor to them being able to access education. Alongside responsibility for safeguarding there will be a particular focus on leading both strategic and operational approaches to improving attendance; ensuring good mental health and wellbeing of students &amp; staff; trauma informed practice and working in partnership with families
This role is vital to our school being successful in changing young people’s lives and therefore needs someone special to fulfil it. In a fast-paced environment you’ll need the organisational skills and resilience that allows you to ensure you maintain a keen eye for detail while prioritising a complex workload and ensuring our students feel known, heard and understood. As a senior leader you’ll play a key role in influencing others and creating culture within school whilst maintaining the ability to ‘walk the talk’ and lead by example, working directly with students and their families.
The knowledge and skills of the successful candidate are important, but we place equal value on someone having the right motivation, resilience, empathy and aspirations to work with our students and continue to drive forward standards in our school. If you have these qualities, we’ll look forward to receiving your application, the successful candidate will join an experienced, happy and hardworking staff team who care passionately about improving the life chances of young people.
This appointment comes at an exciting time in our journey as we work with the local Council to develop significantly improved facilities ahead of converting to Academy status as a founding school within The People’s Learning Trust. You will develop as a senior leader with significant impact on our individual school, whilst being able to make the most of the opportunities which will come through this future growth.
If you are a compassionate and resilient leader with the drive to transform lives, we’d love to hear from you. Come and see our work in action, visits prior to application are encouraged; please contact the school on 0151 245 3877 or email <a href="mailto:enquiries@thebridge.cheshire.sch.uk" target="_blank">enquiries@thebridge.cheshire.sch.uk</a> to arrange a visit or to request application details.
Closing date for applications is Monday 6th October 2025 at 9am. Interviews are expected to take place over Tuesday 14th and Wednesday 15th October 2025.

Lead with Vision. Shape the Future. Transform Lives.
Sefton is a borough that surprises. With 22 miles of stunning coastline, the UK’s largest dune system, thriving communities, and iconic events like The Grand National and The Open, it is a place of real variety and richness. From Victorian seaside towns to vibrant urban centres, Sefton is full of contrasts and full of opportunity. For our people, our communities, and our Council, this is a place where ambition can take root and grow.
We’re proud of our ‘Good’ Ofsted rating from June this year, and our Children’s Services are poised to take the next step in its journey. We’re now looking for an inspiring and forward-thinking leader to help us build on the strong foundations we’ve established and elevate outcomes for our children and young people to new heights.
You’ll bring a deep understanding of children’s services and a track record of achieving positive outcomes. You’ll be comfortable operating across both the Council and organisational boundaries, addressing key challenges as a wider partnership through a public sector reform lens. We’re strong believers in Sefton that nothing we do is in isolation. You’ll benefit from strong local and regional partnerships, including a committed voluntary sector as we work together to improve services for children and families.
We’re looking for a leader who can balance strategy and operations, bring resilience, and inspire teams to achieve high standards. You’ll lead with creativity and proactive thinking, empowering your team to innovate while maintaining consistent, high-quality service delivery. This role offers a real opportunity to make a lasting impact on Sefton’s children and contribute to the transformation of services that will benefit the borough for years to come.
If you're ready to join a dynamic and committed leadership team and help shape the next generation in a place where your impact will be visible and valued, this is your moment.

Lead with Purpose. Shape Services. Change Lives.
This is a defining moment for Sefton as we recruit an inspirational leader to help us move from a strong foundation towards outstanding services. Following a recent ‘Good’ rating from the Care Quality Commission, Sefton is recognised as one of the top-performing Adult Social Care services in the Northwest. Inspectors praised our compassionate staff, strong values, and innovative practice model. But we’re ambitious to do more - especially around co-production, prevention, and reducing inequalities. 
We’re now seeking an Assistant Director to lead our adult social care function - driving integration, innovation, and improvement across a vibrant and complex borough. This is a high-impact leadership role, overseeing the engine room of our operational delivery. You’ll lead all frontline adult social care services, our client and business support function, and manage a broad portfolio including early intervention, safeguarding and learning disabilities. 
A qualified social worker with senior leadership experience, you’ll have a deep understanding of adult social care systems. You’ll be comfortable operating across organisational boundaries, from integrated health partnerships to regional networks. You’ll work closely with the Cheshire and Merseyside ICB and will benefit from strong local relationships and a committed voluntary sector. 
Like other local authorities across the country, we’re experiencing an increase in demand and complexity. We need someone who can lead with both resilience and creativity - holding up our high standards while empowering people to do their best work. We're looking for someone who is forward thinking and proactive, without compromising on day-to-day practice standards. &nbsp;
Sefton is a vibrant, diverse borough with a strong sense of community and a unique socio-economic geography. Our culture is positive and&nbsp; inclusive, with a working environment that supports people to achieve. This role offers a real breadth of experience and the opportunity to develop yourself as a leader. You’ll join a stable and ambitious leadership team, with strong political backing and a genuine appetite for transformation. 
If you want to shape the future of health and social care in a place where your impact will be visible and valued, this is your moment.
