What skills and experience we're looking for

An exciting opportunity has arisen for our school to recruit an enthusiastic and conscientious Inclusion Hub Lead working with our senior leadership, SEND teachers and Learning Support Team in championing our SEND students.

We are looking to appoint a team member who is hardworking, dynamic and energetic. You should have experience in inclusion and working with students with additional needs. The role will involve coordinating SEND provision across the school and within our Inclusion Hub provision, which provides support for CCN students.

Our core purpose is to support students of all abilities and backgrounds to develop high aspirations and achieve their potential. We do this by nurturing and building ambition for our students, we open opportunities, broaden horizons and introduce challenges ensuring everyone can thrive, both academically and personally, to be the best that they can be.

While with us, we encourage every member of staff to stretch themselves and we give everyone access to a wide range of learning and development opportunities. We aim to develop highly effective evidence-based practices including teaching, learning and assessment, where we collaborate as a whole staff to persistently improve our pedagogy and where we evaluate our practice habitually.
