Progress Lead/Cover Supervisor
Grade 7 (Points 19–25) Term-Time Only Start date: ASAP
Closing date: 23rd February 2026 Interview date: 2nd March 2026
Do you want a role where every day you make a visible difference to young people’s lives?
Millfield is a vibrant, oversubscribed 11–16 secondary school with an exceptional reputation for behaviour, attendance, wellbeing and pastoral care. We are seeking a passionate, resilient and ambitious Progress Lead to join our dynamic Pastoral Team and play a pivotal role in supporting students to flourish both personally and academically.
This is a high‑impact, non‑teaching role for someone who believes that strong relationships, consistency and high expectations can transform life chances.
Why Millfield?
• Award‑winning provision: Nationally recognised awards for Behaviour, Attendance, Wellbeing, SEND, Careers and CPL.
• Outstanding culture: Behaviour is calm, consistent and widely recognised as exceptional. Our students are a delight to work with; they are respectful and kind.
• Strong team ethos: Staff collaborate through shared practice and strong teamwork; morale is high.
• Ambition for all: Background is never a barrier; we are relentless in creating bright futures for every student.
• Oversubscribed and outward‑facing: A school of choice for our community for over 15 years.
The Role
As a Progress Lead, you will take strategic responsibility for a year group of approximately 175 students, supporting them throughout their journey until they leave us in Year 11.
You will be a key pastoral leader, working alongside Form Tutors, teaching staff, families and external agencies to remove barriers to learning and ensure students attend well, behave well and feel safe, supported and motivated.
Key responsibilities include:
• Leading the pastoral support and progress of your year group
• Building strong, professional relationships with students and families
• Monitoring attendance, behaviour and wellbeing, and implementing timely interventions
• Supporting reintegration following periods of absence
• Delivering high‑quality assemblies and contributing to form time provision
• Managing and supporting Form Tutors to ensure consistency and high standards
• Working closely with the Behaviour and Progress Manager and Family Support Worker
• Liaising with external agencies to support vulnerable students
• Contributing to a calm, orderly school environment through visible presence
You will also undertake Cover Supervisor duties, delivering pre‑planned lessons across the school when required, enabling you to build positive relationships with students beyond your year group.
Who We’re Looking For
This role would suit someone who:
• Has experience working with young people, ideally in an educational or pastoral setting
• Is confident, calm and consistent, with high expectations of behaviour and conduct
• Can balance empathy with firmness and professionalism
• Communicates effectively with students, families and colleagues
• Is organised, reflective and solution‑focused
• Shares our commitment to safeguarding, inclusion and equality
You do not need to be a qualified teacher; what matters most is character, credibility and commitment.

• A highly respected pastoral team with strong systems and leadership support
• Award‑winning CPL and opportunities to complete the Millfield Leadership Pathway

• Cycle to work scheme
• A visible, supportive Senior Leadership Team committed to reducing workload
