Job description

The role in a nutshell

As a teacher within the Trust, you will have the opportunity to reach out and be a mentor and a role model for children who need the guidance and support that your qualifications and experience will bring to the role.

Classrooms and teachers are continually learning how to collaborate with our children to secure the very best outcomes they deserve by creating beautiful and meaningful work that can be shared with peers and families.

Suppose nothing makes you happier and more fulfilled than seeing children discover their passion, experience success in learning, or come to understand the importance of perseverance.

You will bring a deep love of learning and pass that passion and knowledge onto our children every day.

Children with additional needs deserve to be treated the same as all other groups of children. They deserve the same opportunities and access to the rich learning experiences their mainstream peers enjoy.

Our specialist school is seeking a qualified teacher who values each child as an individual, is committed to helping them succeed, and is confident in both supporting and challenging them to reach their full potential.

We are particularly looking for strong primary practitioners with experience in EYFS, as well as Key Stages 1 and 2, who have a secure knowledge of the primary core curriculum. This will enable effective lesson adaptation and the use of formative assessment to positively impact pupil progress. Experience of working within a specialist setting is desirable, but not essential. Above all, you will demonstrate resilience, compassion, and a strong commitment to inclusion, particularly when working with some of the city’s most vulnerable pupils.

The candidate

The ideal candidate will be:

• 1. Passionate about complex children and committed to meeting their personal needs
• 2. Committed to school improvement and raising levels of pupil achievement
• 3. A reflective practitioner, with the ability to plan strategically
• 4. Someone who can demonstrate excellent organisational, communication and inter-personal skills with colleagues and parents/carers
• 5. Will share and support the academy’s ethos, and have energy and commitment to all aspects of academy life
• 6. Focused on high expectations of learning and behaviour
• 7. Committed to inclusion, and have a caring and adaptable approach in supporting children of all abilities
• 8. A good team player and committed to the wider life of the academy
• 9. A suitably qualified teacher, ideally with experience of special educational needs

You will help children and young people learn and develop the skills and character required to foster confidence, curiosity, creativity and empathy. We believe they will progress with the spirit and character necessary to embrace life's challenges.

We welcome applications from everyone who believes they meet the expectations of the role regardless of age, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, faith, or disability. To ensure that our composition of our colleagues is representative of the communities we serve, applications from groups who are currently under-represented in education including people with disabilities and people from minority ethnic backgrounds are particularly encouraged.
