What skills and experience we're looking for
Our experienced Head teacher and her supportive senior leadership team are looking to recruit an experienced teacher, with a passion for and experience of teaching pupils with SEND. This is a brand new role to work in our new Enhanced Learning Provision for children with SEND working alongside SEND teaching assistants. This is a full time role.
The Crescent Primary School is a large, three-form entry school in the Selhurst area of Croydon, with a modern building and fantastic grounds, but more importantly, amazing pupils. Our school is part of The Pioneer Academy Trust. We have a large team of staff who work together to ensure that everyone is equipped with the skills they need to succeed. We believe that everyone has the right to learn, whoever they are, whatever they can and can't yet do, and that together, we are stronger.
At The Crescent Primary School we are opening a MLD ELP for children with Mild Learning Difficulties. Croydon special schools and enhanced learning provisions offer appropriate placements for children and young people with the most significant needs, who require a curriculum which is wrapped around them so that they can engage in learning. Special School and ELPs form part of Croydon’s continuum of provision and services which The Council makes for children and young people with SEND. They offer a variety of provision through their different designations and distinctive areas of expertise. The ELP curriculum is topic based and is a blend of EYFS/KS1 learning, social communication skills, listening, speaking and attention. There is also a focus on sensory needs, behaviour and play. The children all have individual packages of support according to their own particular needs.

At The Pioneer Academy, we take the wellbeing and mental health of our staff seriously which is why we are committed to regular reviews of staff well-being and reducing staff workload. We have increased our PPA offer this year to up to 5 hours for full time teachers, and regular additional release time scheduled for all subject leaders across the school. We create bespoke career pathways for every member of staff, identifying and growing talent, with outstanding professional development opportunities at every stage of your career. We also have an Employee Assistance Programme with a range of resources to support wellbeing which is available to all employees and their immediate family members 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.
What we offer you:
