  • About The Role

  • About our Vacancy
     
    Due to the retirement of our long-standing and successful PE teacher, we have a golden opportunity for a teacher who actively collaborates in an ambitious team to make a daily difference to the lives of autistic children who have an Education and Health Care Plan.

    We are particularly keen to hear from you if you have experience of delivering tailored and personalised learning programmes for children with SEND and a specialism or special interest in physical education and development.    As all children here have an EHCP and are working significantly below age-related expectations, the role is more likely to suit those who are trained/experienced within Early Years, Primary or Special settings. ECTs and those with SEN experience and /or experience of making provision for autistic individuals are also welcome to apply. We operate an EYFS/Primary model of teaching up to and including Year 13 with some specialist teaching in Y10-13.  

    The successful applicant would deliver PE programmes across the whole school age-range in conjunction with daily and weekly sports coaching programmes and also have responsibility for arranging and leading on whole school sports events.  We have excellent indoor and outdoor facilities and resources including a fitness suite, trampolines, bicycles and wave boards, Daily Mile track, large sports field, MUGA and playground space.

    We are seeking to appoint a class teacher who is:

    Passionate about high quality personalised provision for children with autism.
    An excellent teacher with experience or expertise in working with pupils with complex needs in EYFS/Primary/Special Needs.
    Will be an excellent role model, especially encouraging positive relationships with everyone they come into contact with.
    Equipped with strong inter-personnel needs.
    A resilient practitioner committed to further development.
    Someone who loves working closely with others to change things for the better.

    This post is a customer-facing position and falls within the scope of the Code of Practice on English Language Requirement for Public Sector Workers. The school has a statutory duty under Part 7 of the Immigration Act 2016 to ensure that post holders have a command of spoken English sufficient for the effective performance of the job requirements. The appropriate standards are set out in the JD/Person Specification.   These will be applied during the recruitment/selection and probationary stages.
