Foxwood Academy, Finance, EHCP and Exams Assistant job summary

FullFoxwood A

Foxwood Academy is seeking to appoint an enthusiastic and dedicated individual to the role of Finance, Exams and EHCP Assistant, to start in September 2025.

This is an incredibly exciting time to be joining the Foxwood team. Plans are underway to invest in a multi-million pound new-build and refit of our current campus to increase our numbers from 114 to over 250 children and young people.

Foxwood Academy is a friendly 4-18 special Academy in Nottinghamshire, we were graded good by Ofsted in October 2017 and again in March 2023. We have recently merged with a very local multi academy trust and see ourselves as a truly inclusive school. As we build our new school, our neighbouring secondary school are likely to start building their new school making the overall investment in our ‘learning village’ one of the biggest educational investments in the country. As you can imagine, we are very excited.

Our students needs are varied but in general we cater for children and young people with moderate and severe learning difficulties. Many of our children and young people have a diagnosis of Autism and a proportion have additional speech and language needs. Many of our children have spent time in mainstream settings but move to Foxwood for a more specialised environment and curriculum.

Our children and young people are amazing, we consider special education to be the best kept secret in education and so we actively welcome applicants from both mainstream and special sectors. Training is available and many of our teachers and support staff come from a variety of educational backgrounds.

We offer:

A positive and caring ethos and working environment

A committed, friendly, welcoming and supportive staff team

Excellent support from the headteacher, senior leadership team and governing body

High quality and bespoke professional and career development opportunities

Access to a wide range of free wellbeing services via the Schools Advisory Service (SAS)

Access to the Local Government Pension Scheme

Free parking on site.

If you believe you meet the criteria for this role, we would like to hear from you.

White Hills Park Trust comprises nine successful schools across Nottinghamshire, six primary, two secondary (one including a sixth form) and one special school. It’s an exciting time as the Trust is embarking on a period of steady growth with further schools joining us soon.  We are committed to supporting the wellbeing and career aspirations of our staff team.

Our partnership of schools is united by shared ethos and values, working in deep collaboration to give all our children the best possible start in life. Our mission is to provide the very best opportunities and outcomes for young people. Our staff work closely together to deliver high quality teaching and learning, share good practice, pool resources and participate in joint projects for the benefit of pupils.
