We are the Buckinghamshire Primary PRU. We support children who are finding life difficult at their mainstream school. Everyone who works for the PRU is passionate about giving the children we support the best opportunities to succeed, with a great reputation and close links with the mainstream schools in our community so that we can work together to help children overcome barriers and instill a lifelong love of learning.

You will be supported by other members of the senior leadership team, with a bespoke induction programme to suit your experience and background.

We have high expectations of our pupils, and as Teacher in Charge you will need to be able to challenge and support classroom colleagues to build the curriculum around pupils and their needs. You will be responsible for all aspects of day to day site management together with leading and managing the team based at your site to deliver both inreach and outreach interventions, and for developing effective relationships with colleagues in mainstream schools.

The role also provides opportunities to provide training and advice to colleagues in mainstream schools with their own behaviour management policies and strategies as part of the services commissioned from the PRU by the local authority.

You will be well supported in your role by an enthusiastic and friendly staff team, with opportunities for professional development, and a positive and proactive Management Committee.
