Primary location: Willow Dene School, Greenwich

Roll: SEND for children aged 2-19 with a wide range of special needs across two locations

Willow Dene is a forward thinking and innovative school that is committed to providing an

outstanding education for children with a wide range of learning needs. We have been awarded

NAS advanced accreditation, are a MOVE centre of excellence and have designed and

implemented our own ground breaking personalised assessment system.

Willow Dene forms part of the exciting Compass Partnership of Schools and is a charitable

trust of 15 schools across Greenwich and Essex that work at one to achieve the very best for

all children and communities. We aim to inspire all children to engage confidently with

the world and develop the knowledge and skills from across the curriculum that

enable them to thrive. By working as one, we maximise the knowledge and skills of

all the adults in our schools. We share the very best practice and learning from the

research that will make a difference to the progress and achievement of all children.

This partnership provides immense opportunities to develop the quality of provision and

outcomes, and the sharing of good practice. We are a research-engaged community and are

constantly seeking new and innovative ways of developing teaching for learning.

We have been judged by Ofsted as "Outstanding". The report recognised that ‘all

staff are determined to give every child who comes through the school’s doors the

best possible start in life’ and ‘leaders have successfully created a culture where staff

feel valued and supported’. Willow Dene is committed to safeguarding and promoting the

welfare of all pupils attending the school. As the duties of this post involve regular

contact with children, any offer to the successful candidate will be conditional upon

an Enhanced DBS and medical clearance check's being completed.

We are looking for a dynamic, passionate and enthusiastic practitioner, who is willing to

learn and want to achieve the very highest standards of teaching and learning. We want

someone who is able to see the possibilities for our exceptional learners and develop

provision that enables all to thrive. You will be joining a friendly, enthusiastic and well

rewarding.

In-service training, an induction programme and mentoring will be provided by the
