Class Teacher (Primary trained ideally) - School for Inspiring Talents (Acorn Education)
- Multiple Locations
- Multiple Terms
- Main Pay Scale 1 - 6
Required for January 2025 or sooner.
Do you want to:
Make a real difference to some of the most vulnerable students in our area?
Express a passion for creative learning and teaching, being allowed the space to develop individuals with a more adaptive curriculum than mainstream?
Work for a high-trust organisation that values relationships and teamwork?
School for Inspiring Talents (SfIT) is keen to appoint a class teacher to nurture our unique cohort of students; engaging and inspiring them with exceptional learning and teaching that overcomes barriers and sets high expectations.
SfIT is an independent therapeutic day school for pupils aged 5-16 years who have experienced childhood trauma and/or adverse childhood experiences, exhibiting Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH) difficulties making it difficult for them to flourish within a mainstream setting. We currently have two school sites in Devon (Newton Abbot and Ashburton) and this position is likely to be based at our College House site in Newton Abbot with or younger students.
You will be proactive, resilient, and committed to striving for excellence, putting our students first in every aspect of school life. Our ideal candidate is someone who will understand the relational and therapeutic approach we take in supporting our students, always remaining professionally curious and knowing that behaviour is communication.
This vacancy has come about due to our school becoming part of Outcomes First Group and having the ability to expand. This, therefore, is a fantastic opportunity to join a dynamic group of colleagues within a growing organisation, with the potential for further career opportunities and personal development. Applications from ECT’s and experienced teachers alike are welcomed, and we would especially like to hear from anyone with a passion for Art, Design Technology, Computing or RE.
Visits to our school to meet our team and students are actively encouraged; please email Sophie (s.warwick@sfit.org.uk) to arrange a tour or with any further queries you may have.
We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expect all staff to share this commitment. This role requires an enhanced DBS disclosure.
Please complete the SfIT application form (available from our website) and submit to HR: HR@sfit.org.uk
Due to our Safer Recruitment policy, CVs will not be accepted.
Application deadline: Monday 16th October at 9:00am
Interview Date: Likely Wednesday 18th and 19th November 2024.
