What skills and experience we're looking for

Location: Meadow Primary School and Wimbish Primary Academy, but may be expected to travel between other sites for training or meetings.

We are seeking to appoint the right person to coordinate inclusion at both of our friendly and

supportive schools, working between The Meadow and Wimbish. The Special Educational Needs Coordinator, with the support of the Executive Headteacher, is responsible for inspiring and motivating the school community to develop effective ways of overcoming barriers to learning and promoting effective teaching and learning for children with specific needs or vulnerabilities. This is a key role for the school, and the successful applicant will be part of the Wider Senior Leadership Team, driving the school forward.

In this pivotal role, you will lead a team committed to ensuring that all children, regardless of their needs, receive the support they require to thrive. You will work closely with staff, offering guidance and support to maintain our high expectations and inclusive ethos. The role will also include overseeing our pupil premium spend, line management of Teaching Assistants and supporting both schools in implementing our mental health strategy. We offer high quality and personalised training packages to support all of our staff, including this role.

As a Trust, our SENCOs work closely with each other and our Director of Inclusion, developing and sharing good practice amongst our schools.

At both the Meadow and Wimbish, we work closely in our phased teams and support one another. We have a skilled team of Teaching Assistants and amazing children. Our curriculum at both schools is tailored to meet the needs of our learners and is exciting and progressive. Our passion is creating lifelong learners and children who believe in themselves and each other, this. The ethos and community spirit of our schools is clearly visible, and the children and staff take pride in both of our schools.

If you have the skills, determination and experience to support us in raising standards

then we’d love to hear from you.

The Meadow and Wimbish are part of Anglian Learning, an Academy Trust which enables us to provide high quality CPD, often bespoke to our individual staff. We also work closely with other schools both in our local cluster and the Trust in a partnership of school-to-school support, both offering and receiving in-house training, networking opportunities and support.

  • Laptop and ipad
