Why choose us?
Beverley Minster aims to create a safe, supportive environment where everyone is given the opportunity to achieve their full potential. We believe that learning should be exciting. We also recognise that learning may be hard work that needs persistence and determination but children should be provided with the tools they need to progress regardless of starting point or background.
Our school is a welcoming community where our distinctive Christian ethos promotes a safe, happy, healthy and nurturing environment. Together, we empower children with the confidence, independence and resilience to become life-long learners and to play a positive role in their community.
Within The Education Alliance Multi Academy Trust, there are lots of opportunities for collaboration and also further opportunities to develop and progress.As a trust, we are here to make great schools and happier, stronger communities so that people have better lives.For too long in many schools, staff have been asked to choose between being seen as good at their job and being a good mum, dad, partner, son, daughter or friend. We are doing everything we can to support our staff to balance the demands of their jobs and those at home.
To support this, we:
- Trust our staff to plan, prepare and assess at the best time for them, allowing them to go off-site in their PPA
- Have centralised our Behaviour Policy so teachers are freed up from supervising detentions
- Demand ethical leadership built on professional trust
- Reject fads and ensure our CPD is evidence-informed and predominantly subject specific
- Have reduced data collections to twice yearly
- Do not expect staff to respond to emails outside normal working hours
- Do not deploy staff at other Trust schools unless it is at their request
We have removed the following:
- Performance management objectives and performance-related pay
- Lesson observations and high stakes, toxic accountability
- Onerous marking policies
- Requirements for daily or weekly lesson plans
Above all, we recognise that seeking to remove the number of tasks staff undertake will have little effect on improving work/home balance if this happens within a toxic culture. To support this, we offer training for our leaders to ensure they are able to translate our values into behaviours which are built on the principles of dignity, respect, professionalism and integrity.
We offer a range of benefits, including:
- Ethical leadership, professional trust and autonomy and a caring ethos in which everyone is valued and respected.
- A great programme of CPDand opportunities to collaborate with other teaching professionals across TEAL.
- Family friendly policies,including sector leading Maternity, Adoption and Neonatal care pay offers.
- Opportunities forflexible working
- Well-being supportincluding discounted East Riding gym membership; free annual flu vaccinations; refund of the cost of the annual NHS prescription prepayment certificate; access to a free employee assistance scheme 24/7 with advice on a wide range of practical issues ranging from legal information and consumer issues to specialist counselling or our virtual GP service.
- Access to ourstaff benefits platformwhich includes big brand discounts and other financial incentives including a cycle to work scheme offering discounted bike purchases
- Membership of theTeachers’ Pension Scheme.
What are we looking for?
You will be joining a well-established, committed team who are supportive and forward-thinking. We seek someone with experience of working with children and young people with a range of special educational needs, who possesses the skills, knowledge and motivation to be able to make a difference.
The candidate will have a strong knowledge of statutory processes and experience of working with professionals and parents/carers, participating in planned reviews.
If you are an ambitious, committed and enthusiastic individual, who wants to be a significant part of supporting young people with SEMH needs, we look forward to receiving your application.
