SEND Teacher
About This Role
The staff and governors of Unity Community Primary School, a friendly, inclusive and supportive school, are looking to recruit a highly effective classroom practitioner with significant experience of delivering IEP and EHCP provisions.
Unity Community Primary is a two-form entry primary school serving a richly diverse community in Cheetham, North Manchester. Unity is part of the multi-academy trust Big Life Schools, which shares the vision and values of the Big Life group. Unity is a UNICEF Rights Respecting Gold school and we pride ourselves on our inclusive, nurturing ethos with a strong focus on the wellbeing of staff and children (21% of our pupils are on the SEND register and 4% have an EHCP).
In September 2024 we opened our Hive classroom. The Hive classroom is a time-limited and transitional place for pupils to rehearse skills needed to thrive in a mainstream classroom with a high staff to pupil ratio ensuring a detailed understanding of individual needs. The Hive offers a quieter, sensory-rich, engaging environment for SEND pupils, with communication skills at the heart of all learning opportunities.
The successful candidate will:
- Be an experienced, outstanding teacher of children with additional needs
- Be able to work well in a team and deploy and support additional staff effectively
- Be positive, resilient, flexible and work well in our happy team
- Be committed to and passionate about challenging inequalities and making a difference
- Be able to develop positive relationships with parents and communicate well with people from diverse backgrounds
- Share Unity's vision and the values of the Big Life Group
