What skills and experience we're looking for

Do you want the chance to work in a forward thinking, locally based Multi Academy Trust?

Would you relish the opportunity to work with highly motivated and innovative staff who always put the children first and have the highest aspirations for each individual?

This post is ideally suited to an ambitious teacher, wanting to develop their leadership skills in three outstanding primary schools. This position is working across our three primary schools as named SENDCo at Cringle Brook Primary, Ladybarn Primary and Green End Primary. This position does not have a full class responsibility and includes modelling practice, observing and supporting children, managing a team of staff, liaising with parents, advising staff and tracking pupil progress.

The successful candidate will have a strong drive and determination to ensure that support for every child with SEND is of the highest quality. They will be able to demonstrate excellent classroom practice in ensuring that SEND pupils make strong progress. They will have a wide knowledge of SEND and either have the SENDCo qualification or the willingness to commence it as soon as they start the role. Previous experience of working as a SENDCo would be desirable, but not essential.

What the school offers its staff

Kingsway Community Trust is a Multi Academy Trust made up of 3 Ofsted Graded Outstanding schools, Ladybarn Primary School, Cringle Brook Primary School and Green End Primary School. This provides the staff and children of both schools with enhanced development and networking opportunities.

Kingsway Community Trust can offer you:-

A thriving learning community with a positive ethos and innovative approaches
A supportive and empowering environment, supported by a National Leader of Education
The support of a well-established, highly successful and forward thinking Trust
A culturally rich and diverse urban community
