About the job:

This is a very exciting stage in our development to join. There are currently a number of lead practitioners across subjects, as well as post 16 provision, who work as part of the wider education and training team. We also have a number of lead practitioners who lead on aspects of enrichment and personal development. We are now looking to recruit a brilliant individual to take on the new role as Senior Lead Practitioner for Behaviour and Attitudes provision within our trust.

In doing so they will ensure that schools are working as partners with their parents and carers, and understand that there is often a need to support the family as well as the child to improve behaviour.

They will work with leaders to ensure systems are clear, robust, understood and applied fairly by all. This will suit a leader who is driven by wanting to facilitate a truly inclusive culture.
