Nurture Teacher, full time, permanent contract

At our Bishopton PRU site in Billingham, we are seeking to appoint a Nurture Teacher to raise standards of student progress and achievement within the Nurture group

The successful candidate will:

• Update the Head of Centre on the effectiveness of core curriculum subjects for pupils with challenging behaviour and SEND.
• Ensure pupils learning is monitored regularly and impact is assessed and progress can be evidenced.

• Monitor and evaluate the development of learning and teaching strategies for students with challenging behaviour and SEN, ensuring you recognise and fulfil your statutory responsibilities to pupils with SEN and understand the importance of taking ownership of additional provision and the progress children (with SEN) make in their class/teaching group.
• Disseminate good practice in challenging behaviour and SEN across the school.
• Identify resources needed to meet the needs of pupils with challenging behaviour and SEN and advise the Head of Centre of priorities for expenditure.

• Develop and implement baseline assessments to ascertain starting points, progress and distance travelled, by using a tracking and monitoring system.

This is a particularly challenging role, and the successful candidate must be committed to creating a positive learning environment no matter what barriers they may face. You will need a high level of resilience and a commitment to working as part of an emotionally intelligent team to support vulnerable children.
