What the school offers its staff
This exciting and varied role will provide you with a wide range of experiences, including:
● key working individual students
● developing your skills in working with children with SEMH/ASD/Mental Health difficulties
● supporting learning both in and out of the classroom
● co-planning and supporting a variety of creative activities
We believe in a shared team ethos, working together using flexible and supportive approaches to develop students’ learning and behaviour. Meadowbrook staff have a ‘can do’ attitude that makes a real difference to the lives of our students; many of which have become disengaged with education and lost the confidence to achieve their full potential. We are always looking for creative and innovative ways forward and offer a variety of opportunities for ongoing professional development/training. Meadowbrook College is a welcoming, nurturing and stimulating environment to work in.
