This teaching post offers an exciting opportunity to join the team within our Formal Teaching and Learning Group. We are seeking a creative and imaginative practitioner—someone who inspires curiosity, maintains high expectations, and has a demonstrable impact on pupils’ outcomes, confidence, and future life chances.

At Broomfield, we make a genuine difference to the lives of our exceptional young people. We are therefore looking to appoint an enthusiastic, motivational, and innovative teacher to join our dedicated team at this pivotal time in the life of the school. We want a teacher who can ignite a love of learning, uphold our high standards, and contribute meaningfully to improving the life chances of our pupils.

The successful candidate will be based on our main site. Our learners follow an adapted National Curriculum that is highly personalised, incorporating EHCP outcomes, individual aspirations, and a strong focus on Preparation for Life. Teaching and learning are tailored to each pupil, ensuring their interests shape the curriculum and that learning remains engaging, motivating, and meaningful.

We have high aspirations for all our learners, who undertake external accreditations where appropriate. A personalised curriculum is essential in enabling our pupils to thrive, and we employ a range of approaches to ensure they can access learning and reach their full potential. Learning takes place both in the classroom and within the local community through enriching, real-life experiences that help pupils apply their skills beyond the school environment.

We offer an inclusive setting operating on the main Broomfield site and three partnership sites:

• Windmill Primary School
• Rodillian Academy
• Future Steps Hub (White Rose Business Park)

This enables us to meet a wide variety of pupils’ needs and provide support and advice to the community.

Staff can be expected to work on any of the four sites if required.

The successful candidates will have;

• Experience and skills of teaching pupils with a wide range of Special Educational Needs including ASC
• The ability to offer a range of inspirational teaching, learning, assessment and behaviour management strategies to ensure learning is engaging and inclusive
• High expectations, commitment and enthusiasm for both the personal and educational development of all pupils
