What skills and experience we're looking for

The CEO of SECAT is seeking to appoint a Specialist Teacher at KS3/KS4 for our new Autism Resource Base (ARB) at Shoeburyness High School.

This role is central to delivering the highest quality provision for some of our students who join the ARB. The post requires an experienced teacher to support and teach the students a personalised curriculum. This will involve assisting these students to access mainstream education and develop personal and social skills. The postholder will help to set a climate for learning and create an ethos in which every child matters and is supported to reach their full potential.

Shoeburyness High School is an inclusive comprehensive academy in the heart of the community, part of the wider family of SECAT schools. Oversubscribed every year, we have a reputation as a friendly, caring school and as a place where positive relationships are fostered and sustained.

Our seven-year curriculum offer is diverse, rich and delivered by dedicated, skilled and highly qualified practitioners to ensure every child has the best opportunities for success and happiness. Our children have access to a wide range of extra-curricular opportunities; sport, drama and music play a central part of our offer, as well as a wide-ranging variety of clubs and activities across the school.

Supported by a strong, committed pastoral and support team, our young people are able to develop the skills, knowledge, and resilience for their lives beyond Shoeburyness High School.

We ‘Expect Excellence’ in all aspects of our school and this is our guiding principle to ensure that our school community thrives.

We are proud to be a part of the Southend East Community Academy Trust (SECAT) along with Bournes Green Infant School, Bournes Green Junior School, Hinguar Primary School, Richmond Avenue Primary School and Thorpedene Primary School and Nursery.
