  Are you a qualified teacher – with more than 3 years’ teaching experience - motivated to make a difference in children’s lives? Does working with young children with challenging behaviour as a result of social, emotional and mental health needs sound like a career for you? Can you find different and engaging ways to teach children who are not accessing mainstream education? Then, read on, as we may be able to help you start on a career that you may find rewarding and highly motivating.

  Our school will be opening a six place EYFS / KS1 SEMH Resource Provision on 4th November 2019. This provision will provide a more inclusive offer for pupils aged 4-7 years old with social, emotional and mental health (SEMH) needs in Halton - giving them the opportunity, in time, to be educated alongside their peers. This provision will be opening during the same term as an equivalent SEMH Resource Provision at Beechwood Primary School (only 1.5 miles away) – therefore, the staff in both provisions will work closely together, supporting one another and providing on-going advice to staff in both schools; and other schools within Halton as required. This collaboration will begin from the beginning of the Autumn Term (September 2019) – prior to our provision opening.
