Join our Mission of Excellence, Equality, and Integrity

Wyvern Academy, part of the Consilium Academies Trust, is seeking an Inclusion Manager to lead our internal inclusion provision. This is an exciting opportunity to join a supportive, forward-thinking Trust and play a key role in ensuring every student has the opportunity to thrive, both academically and personally.

At Wyvern, we live by our vision of “Excellence in all that we do”. We are proud to have been rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted (June 2023), with inspectors recognising our transformational journey and commitment to ensuring our students are safe, happy, and successful.

As part of Consilium Academies, you will be part of a wider family of schools dedicated to Excellence, Equality and Integrity, with access to professional development, support, and opportunities through our Centre for Professional Learning.

About the Role

As Inclusion Manager, you will:

• Lead and manage an internal inclusion provision to support pupils temporarily withdrawn from mainstream lessons.
• Provide targeted interventions to address barriers to learning, including behaviour, social, and emotional needs.
• Work closely with teachers, the SENDCO, parents, and external agencies to re-engage students and reintegrate them into mainstream lessons.
• Support pupils to develop positive attitudes, emotional resilience, and strategies to succeed both in and beyond school.
• Create a purposeful, supportive learning environment and track the impact of interventions.

This role is integral to ensuring our students feel valued, supported, and empowered to achieve their full potential.

About You

• Has excellent interpersonal skills and the ability to motivate and inspire young people.

• Has experience working with young people and families, and ideally with external agencies.
• Understands safeguarding and has knowledge of supporting social, emotional, and behavioural needs.
• Can deliver individual and small-group interventions to support positive behaviour and learning.

Experience in a school environment is desirable, but we also welcome applicants from other professional backgrounds with transferable skills.

Why Join Us?

• Generous annual leave: 34 days plus bank holidays (support staff, pro rata for part-time).
• Excellent pension schemes (Local Government & Teachers’ Pension).
• Automatic pay progression in line with grading.
• Enhanced sick pay in line with national agreements.
