Chelveston Road School opened in September 2021 with a cohort of Year 7 students and is a school for students with special educational needs and disabilities. The school is part of Better Together Learning Trust and caters for students with a range of learning and cognition needs as well as autism. We are 80% full at 118 students and will be at full capacity in September 2025 with 145 students supported by a dedicated staff of approximately 65.
We are looking to appoint an expert leader of science who can lead the Science curriculum for our school. We are seeking a leader with a deep understanding of excellence in curriculum and pedagogy and a belief in the importance of subject specialism within a SEN setting.
This is a new and exciting role, and our leadership team welcomes applications from dynamic individuals who will make a positive difference to the lives of young people with SEND, all under the umbrella of Better Together Learning Trust’s core value of ‘Every Child, Every Chance, Every Day’.
We are looking for an outstanding, enthusiastic and passionate teacher who specialises in Science but possesses a creative and flexible approach to teaching who also has the skills to teach across a range of subjects, to students with special educational needs.
