About Mayfield School

Our school is a special school for 310 pupils aged between 2 and 19 with a wide range of special educational needs and disabilities including PMLD, cognition and learning needs and autism. We are proud to be a Unicef Rights Respecting School, on a journey to achieve the gold award.

This post involves working with pupils who have persistent differences with social interaction, social communication and understanding emotions. Our pupils need clear boundaries and consistent support with engagement, learning, emotional regulation, and sensory needs.

The school is split across two sites – Wheeler Street in Lozells (co-located with Holte School and Lozells Junior and Infant School and Nursery) and Heathfield Road in Handsworth. Curriculum Leaders are expected to work across both sites and are typically committed to teaching 16-19 hours per week.

In recent years Mayfield has engaged with all stakeholders to design the “Get Real” curriculum to be ambitious for all our pupils and equip them with the knowledge, opportunities, and experiences to succeed. Curriculum Leaders play a key part in continuing to develop our curriculum offer, role modelling and monitoring the implementation of the curriculum and assessing its impact. This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced or aspiring middle leader to really make a difference to the lives of young people and their families through education.
