What skills and experience we're looking for

You will lead a well-established team committed to ensuring that no child with a hearing need is limited by their background, but that all are inspired to make exceptional progress and empowered to be the leaders of tomorrow. We welcome applications from individuals who are already qualified teachers of the deaf or from qualified teachers keen to undertake the necessary training. You will be a dynamic classroom practitioner, capable of motivating and inspiring our students across the curriculum.

  • Well-resourced Hearing Resource Base - specialist materials and resources to ensure high-quality teaching and learning takes place in all allocated classes
  • Strong Partnerships - Speech and Language Therapists and Audiologists for the latest thinking in our teaching and individually tailored programmes

  • Successful record of inclusion - close links with the Slough SEND team and the Berkshire Sensory Consortium Service (BSCS), who lead the peripatetic service within Berkshire
  • Mentorship Programme – alongside BSCS, we provide a programme for teachers in training or a two-year specialist postgraduate qualification to train as a Teacher of the Deaf. Further SEND training is also available.
