About All Saints Catholic College

All Saints is an 11-16 school, situated near the northern boundary of Kirklees. We are a Catholic school with students attending from diverse cultural backgrounds, which contributes to the distinctive ethos. In November 2022, Ofsted judged All Saints “Good” in every category, and we received a “Good with Outstanding Catholic Life and Mission” judgement from our Catholic Schools Inspection in March 2025.

About the role

A rare and exciting opportunity has arisen for a SENDCo to join our school in September 2025, and have a pivotal role in transforming the learning and lives of our students.

The successful candidate will be passionate about inclusion, a champion for all students with SEND and an advocate for some of our most vulnerable students, both pastorally and from a needs perspective.

As part of the role you will teach 10 lessons across our two-week timetable. Details will be discussed with the successful candidate.

This is a key senior role in the school, and the successful applicant will be directly involved in driving the school forward. If you have the skills, determination and experience to support us in raising standards then we’d love to hear from you.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join our College. In turn, we are looking for a candidate committed to playing a part in transforming the lives of our young people.

• We are part of the Cycle to Work scheme. Tax free bikes and safety equipment can be payable by payroll deduction through a partnership with Cyclescheme.
• Free parking
