What skills and experience we're looking for

Bourne Community College is a welcoming secondary school that is dedicated to fostering academic excellence and personal growth within a nurturing environment which reflect our schools underpinning values kindness, respect and determination.

The role:

The Bridge is a new provision that will be based in our Specialist Inclusion Base known as The Hub. Primarily the main purpose and aim of this provision is to increase the accessibility to learning for our more vulnerable students.

We are looking to appoint an energetic, enthusiastic and hardworking Teacher of ‘The Bridge’ to join the school for this exciting new role. This position has been created to support with the ever-increasing demands SEND learners face within education and to provide an inclusive environment for our students who find it hard to cope with the challenges within a mainstream school environment. The successful applicant will be responsible for and expected to deliver lessons (mainly the core subjects of English, Maths and Science) in small groups, facilitate and coordinate the learning of other subjects through collaborating and liaising with the relevant subject teachers and to provide a learning base for students who are unable to access specific lessons within their timetable. QTS status is essential. This role would lend itself to anyone who is comfortable with supporting school-based anxiety, calm, passionate about the need for Inclusion and has unwarranted optimism for the futures of all young people.

If you think you have what it takes to take on this unique and exciting role at the school, we would love to hear from you.
