What skills and experience we're looking for

Following the promotion of the current postholder, the White Hills Park Trust seek to appoint, for January, or September onwards if possible, a SENCo. We want someone who can lead a culture where SEND is everyone’s responsibility, and to ensure that our SEND students achieve the best possible outcomes and are fully involved in the life of the school.

You will lead a team of skilled and enthusiastic Teaching Assistants, and continue to build on our excellent SEND practice. You will need to be able to work with a range of stakeholders, write successful bids for additional funding and contribute to EHCP reviews.

Due to the demands of the role, you will not have a mainstream teaching commitment, but may be timetabled for small group courses or interventions.
