Required to start September 2023 pending pre-employment checks and notice periods.
This role is an exciting opportunity to further embed excellence in our school family by leading the Nurture Class for students in Years 8, 9 and 10. We already run successful Year 7 and KS4 classes based upon the Nurture principles; this role enables us to support students across our full age and ability range by increasing capacity and access to this approach to learning. Each class has its own Teaching Assistant and a linked member of the Student & Family Support Team who work together to support our students to make progress in every area of their lives.
You will be part of our Haven team; Haven is our purpose-refurbished new building that is home to our nurture curriculum groups. It opened in September 2023 and provides wrap around care, education, and specialist support for students with a profile linked to learning, development, and sensory needs. There are two class groups with Haven, a Year 7 group and a mixed age group covering Y8, 9 and 10. All the students within this group are broadly similar in academic levels, specialist profile and sensory needs.
In this post you will deliver significant parts of the students’ timetable including core subjects, Preparation for Adulthood, Life skills and our specialist curriculum which cover communication, interaction and social skills. You will have experience in SEND teaching, including within a mainstream secondary setting, or experience as a KS2 Teacher. Teaching experience across the upper primary and secondary ag ranges, alongside that of teaching students with SEND and/or Nurture training are important for this role but our overriding priority is to find the right person for our students and to join our team.
You will work with a team of staff, under the leadership of our Nurture Co-ordinator, to plan and deliver a broad and balanced curriculum based on nurture principles that enables students to make progress, achieving qualifications and securing a successful post 16 pathway. We are looking for a proactive, resilient teacher with the ability to plan, teach and assess a range of core subjects alongside a therapeutic curriculum, informed and developed by specialist therapeutic practitioners.
You will be required to undertake positive handling training as part of your induction and essential qualification and person requirements should be met as per role profile to be considered for shortlisting.
