Our primary provision will provide for 40 students in the 4-11 age range with Complex ASD and additional needs from July 2021.

The post will include teaching a range of primary subjects in EYFS-KS2 and having responsibility for curriculum developments with the academy Subject Leaders.

You should have a vision and a drive to deliver meaningful and personalised curricula which provide stretch and challenge enabling all students to achieve.
You should be a good communicator; able to engage effectively with young children and their parents/carers on a daily basis. Ideally, you should have experience of working with non-verbal students and be familiar with alternative forms of communication, sensory processing issues, and a clear understanding of behaviour as a learning need.
