What skills and experience we're looking for

The Resource Base is representative of all of our values at Blaise High School. It is a centre of education for our most vulnerable students and for those students who require the highest level of support to give them equality in life. We aspire to achieve strong outcomes for the students and to prepare them for independent living wherever possible. We operate the Resource Base with absolute integrity having strong moral principles with the students, and we are extremely proud of our Resource Base students and staff, just as we are with all members of the school community. Class sizes are small with a maximum of 10 students, and there is a happy and positive atmosphere for children to develop within.

Working with students and the team of staff in the Resource Base provides a combination of challenge and reward, with a huge sense of achievement evident for many students on a daily basis. To be a successful member of the team you need to have empathy, compassion, resilience, and an absolute belief that all students are capable of achievement. You need to share our commitment that all students deserve high aspirations that can be achieved through a balance of individual, personal and academic achievement.
