We have a volunteering opportunity for an Independent Listener to work with our boarding
community. The Independent Listener is a person outside of the school who our boarding
students may contact directly about problems or concerns at school. Candidates must have an
excellent understanding of safeguarding, an understanding and empathy with the needs of
school age children and adolescents and experience of working in a counselling role or similar.

Our students are a delight to work with: they are articulate, hardworking, well-motivated and
display our 7 core values in the way that they treat each other. We pride ourselves on our
positive staff/student relationships. Sexey’s School has a strong team of staff who are caring,
supportive and working with a ‘determination to be exceptional in all that we do’
Completed application forms should be e-mailed to qetrecruitment@quantockedtrust.co.uk.

To arrange an informal conversation about the role, please contact Tim Allen, Director of
Boarding at tallen@sexeys.somerset.sch.uk
