It is led by a qualified teacher, and this role would be to support the teacher in delivering the provision within The Hive and to facilitate and support the pupils learning and engagement. The Hive is within our school grounds so the successful candidate would be welcomed as a member of the John Clifford team.

Our school community has a strong sense of belonging and we recognise difference and celebrate diversity. A new Headteacher joined John Clifford in January 2026 and together we are committed to continuing to build and strengthen the provision offered to our pupils. The staff are hardworking and committed, we strive to go beyond expectation in education and experience and provide support and care to enable all leaners to be the best that they can be.
