Job overview
The Stamford Endowed Schools are looking for a Student Support Manager to assist with students on a day-to-day basis. The right candidate for this role needs to be someone that can relate to teenagers, who has an ongoing desire to look after their needs and being an ongoing presence in their educational journey throughout school life.
The School enjoys a strong reputation for pastoral care and a large pastoral network extends from the Leadership Team and includes Heads of Year, Form Tutors, the School Counsellor, School nurses, the Chaplain and student Peer Mentors. Progressive in its nature, the pastoral team is an energetic and supportive group to work within. Heads of Year lead the tutor teams and oversee the day-to-day care of the students.
The Student Support Managers will work closely with these teams to ensure students acquire the tools they need to become resilient and empathetic young adults. Students are guided, encouraged and mentored, as needed, in a supportive environment so they will be able to access all that the School has to offer. Today’s young people grow up in a busy and judgmental world and some find it hard to navigate teenage years; the School strives to prepare them for what lies ahead via tutor time activities, the Personal Social Health Education curriculum and specialist talks.
Ways in which support can be offered to students underpin the student - led Phoenix Project, which started in September 2021. Alongside helping students daily, the successful candidates will have the opportunity to contribute to the development of this exciting well being programme.
The School firmly believes that pastoral care is a partnership between School and home, and strong communication lines, with which the Student Support Managers will assist, are a priority for the school.

The Schools are part of the great heritage of Stamford and a symbol of its vibrancy and evolution. The Schools have been established in Stamford since 1532, providing a first class education for children. Today the Schools remain interwoven with Stamford life, to which our students, teachers and parents contribute greatly. At Stamford we have one simple and overriding aim, that is to inspire our students and light fires within them.
The schools educate 1650 pupils at the Stamford Junior School for children aged 2-11, Stamford School for students aged 11-16, and Stamford Sixth Form for students aged 16-18.
This is a really exciting time to be joining the School as after nearly 500 years as a boys’ school and 200 years as a girls’ school, we have joined together as a fully co-educational school. This restructure is giving us the opportunity to look at all aspects of school life with fresh eyes, and we are looking at everything from how we provide the best possible pastoral care to how we shape the timetable, how we make best use of our estate, to how AI can support classroom learning. It is a big change, but a once in a generation opportunity to really set up the School for the next hundred years.
After this positive change, stamfordians will still be able to leave here poised for success in the real world - quietly confident, kind, positive, hardworking, unassuming and resilient. We are independent schools nurturing independent minds.
"I love the idea of preparing our kids from the school room to the boardroom in the 21st century, wherever that boardroom is in a rainforest in Brazil or as a CEO or working with a charity in India. Just as we have a big responsibility, so will they. I want them not just to be content to live in the world but to change it. Exciting!”
Principal, Will Phelan
