Assistant Headteacher - Inclusion/SEND job summary

The role of Assistant Headteacher - Inclusion (AHTI) is a vital one for the Academy. It is a strategic leadership role where the AHTI leads on significant aspects of the Academy, with others, to ensure it impacts positively on student achievement and other outcomes, the quality of teaching and learning in the classroom, the quality of provision matched to need and the necessary support for students to achieve.

The post holder will be expected to network and liaise across the range of external providers, (schools, community and coordinator networks), to ensure a consistency of approach regarding standards, support, transition and high-quality teaching and learning. We are seeking an inspirational leader who positively influences the behaviour of others, motivating staff and students to engage with the core values of the Academy and the wider Trust.

You will be working closely with leaders and staff across the Academy to ensure that systems and procedures are in place to ensure the safety, welfare and wellbeing of all our students. As AHTI you will lead and contribute to the areas of Inclusion, including the line management of the SEND team and Pathways (a highly successful on-site alternative provision). It is expected that the AHTI will be a qualified SENDCo or have a willingness to complete this qualification in the first two years of appointment. The AHTI is a Child Protection Officer and promotes the safeguarding of children throughout the Academy at every level.
