We are a successful and ambitious 11-18 school with a focus on developing all members of our school community through our core principles: compassion, opportunity, resilience and discovery. Our school facilities are excellent, and our students achieve well as a result of their excellent behaviour and the first-class learning opportunities they receive. In May 2023, the school was recognised as ‘good’ in all categories by Ofsted and our outcomes are consistently among the highest in the county.

We believe that developing a supportive and innovative team within school and forging positive relationships with all of our stakeholders is of paramount importance to the success of our community, and we seek to promote the development of our students into resilient, independent young people, who are respectful and make a positive contribution to the wider community and beyond. We pride ourselves on the professional development we offer our staff.

We are looking for a resilient and enthusiastic professional to lead our talented SEND team in supporting our most vulnerable learners and their teachers. The successful candidate will have experience teaching SEND students across the full age and ability range and, ideally, experience leading teaching teams and liaising with external agencies. If you are dedicated to ensuring that our students have the opportunity to succeed and have a genuine enthusiasm for working with young people with additional needs, we would like to hear from you.

Enrich Learning Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of its pupils and expects all those working at the Trust to share this commitment. All offers of employment are subject to an Enhanced DBS check, and where applicable, a prohibition from teaching check will be completed for all applicants.
