Teacher MPR/UPR + SEN - Stopsley Site (LU2 9AY) job summary

All teachers have curriculum responsibilities and belong to teaching and learning teams. There are opportunities to progress to UPR, project lead and apply for leadership positions. We value continuous professional development and encourage teachers to study further to maintain high standards of pedagogy.

We have a shallow water pool onsite. Teachers are expected to support pool-based lessons, this requires water competency and confidence rather than swimming skills.

Teachers will be appointed to the school; however, class teachers will be based on 1 site - Leagrave or Stopsley. Please state in your supporting statement if there is a preferred site.

On occasions teachers may be asked to cover/attend meetings at their non-based site. Expenses would be covered if this was the situation to cover the difference in additional miles are incurred.

Please download the Job Description and Application Guide to assist you in completing your application form.

A person’s criminal record will not in itself prevent a person from being appointed to this post. Applicants will not be refused posts because of offences which are not relevant to, and do not place them at or make them a risk in, the role for which they are applying. However in the event of the employment being taken up, any failure to disclose such offence, as detailed above, will result in dismissal or disciplinary action by the Authority.
