Inclusion Officer

This is a rare opportunity to be part of our SEND team in a five times outstanding special school. All of our children have attended mainstream primary but would not do so well in a large secondary school. We offer a diverse and vibrant curriculum, which is tailored to meet students’ needs by exciting, supporting and challenging them. We expect our students to make the best progress possible; socially, emotionally and academically. We are now looking to appoint skilled and passionate staff that will further enhance the team and enable the impact of their work to grow and develop, working with more individual students, small groups, parents, and staff. We are looking for someone who puts young people first, is caring and supportive. This role supports our Assistant Head with responsibility for Inclusion, carrying out the administrative tasks needed including the EHCP processes, liaising with outside agencies, making referrals, and working alongside staff and parents. We are unblinkingly focused on continual improvement, and this position plays a vital part in leading us towards our vision of 'Achievement for All in a Unique World-Class School'. We serve a richly diverse community and welcome applications from all sections of the community, regardless of gender, race, religion, disability, sexual orientation, or age. We are committed to increasing the diversity of our workforce. If you are passionate about the difference an excellent school can make to young people's ability to learn, express themselves and become active global citizens then please apply. We welcome applicants with a variety of educational experiences but will expect applicants to have worked within the area of SEND, particularly dealing with administration and managing deadlines. Due to high levels of interest in this position and the value we place on selecting the right person please include in your statement why you wish to be appointed as an Inclusion Officer and how your experiences so far ma
