What skills and experience we're looking for

Corpus Christi Catholic Academy Trust wishes to temporarily appoint an Assistant SENCO at All Saints Catholic College.

We are seeking a highly effective practitioner, with a passion for ensuring the best possible provision for SEND pupils. The successful candidate will work closely with Senior Leadership Team to ensure that our pupils with EHC plans have their needs and provision evaluated in a timely manner through the annual review process. This will involve liaising with parents, understanding the views of our pupils, gathering information from staff and professionals and identifying where provision can be improved further.

The successful candidate must be willing to study towards the National Award for SENCOs, which will be funded by the school. This post provides an excellent opportunity for someone wishing to develop the professional knowledge and understanding to become a fully-qualified SENCO and future school leader.

An opportunity to join a newly-established, supportive departmental team led by forward thinking and innovative and creative specialists
Excellent career development opportunities with bespoke paid training as and when required

Prospective candidates are warmly invited to visit the school and meet with a member of the school’s senior leadership team. Please contact Lisa Jones (Headteacher’s PA) on: ljones@allsaintscatholiccollege to make arrangements
