This teaching post offers an exciting opportunity to join our Future Steps Hub, our specialist Post 16 provision based at The White Rose Business Park.

We are looking for a teacher who believes that every young person deserves an ambitious future and who can inspire learners to develop the confidence, skills and resilience needed to achieve it.

Our Future Steps Hub has been recognised as providing a highly inclusive, aspirational and innovative curriculum that prepares young people with SEND for successful adult lives through meaningful learning, authentic experiences and ambitious destinations. Learners develop the knowledge, confidence and independence needed for employment, further education and life beyond school through a curriculum firmly rooted in real-world contexts.

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.

Located within White Rose Business Park, the Future Steps Hub provides a unique learning environment where classrooms extend into the workplace and the wider community.

Our learners benefit from:

• meaningful work-related learning and enterprise
• community-based learning and independent travel
• Duke of Edinburgh's Award and enrichment opportunities
• personalised accreditation pathways
• strong employer partnerships
• dedicated job coaches
• a curriculum built around independence, employability and preparation for adult life.

The role

You will teach young people aged 16-19 with a range of special educational needs, planning highly personalised learning programmes that combine academic learning with preparation for adult life.

You will:

• deliver an ambitious and engaging Post-16 curriculum
• develop learners' independence, communication and self-advocacy
• prepare learners for employment, further education and adulthood
• work alongside job coaches and external partners to create authentic learning experiences
• maximise opportunities within the local community
• support learners to achieve meaningful accreditation
• work closely with families and multi-agency professionals to secure positive long-term outcomes.

Our young people (2-19) have a wide range of special educational needs, including Autistic Spectrum Condition.

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.

We are looking for someone who:

• has successful experience teaching learners with SEND
• has high aspirations for every young person
• believes learning should be purposeful, practical and meaningful
• is creative, reflective and solution-focused
• enjoys working collaboratively as part of a highly supportive team
• can develop learners' independence without creating dependence
• understands preparation for adulthood and the importance of real-life learning
• is committed to continuous professional development.

Experience of Post-16, employability, functional English and Maths, vocational learning or accreditation would be advantageous, although not essential.

In addition the following personal qualities;

• Positive and creative attitude
• Resilience
• Enthusiasm and the ability to motivate and inspire others
• Able to use initiative
• Willingness to reflect and share effective practice with others

In return we can offer:

• Friendly, enthusiastic and highly motivated pupils and young people
• The support of our strong, caring and committed staff team
• A comprehensive CPD programme with a commitment to developing your skills and career progression

We promote diversity and want a workforce which reflects the population of Leeds. Applications are welcome from all, irrespective of sex, sexuality, race, religion, marital status, age, or disability.
