Class Teacher - SEN Cricklade, England
Job description
Meadow Bridge School is a newly opened independent special school for pupils aged 6 – 19, based in a beautiful setting in the town of Cricklade, Wiltshire.
This is an exciting opportunity to join us and be part of developing an innovative and progressive new school.
Our creative, individualised approach to learning, is centred around well-being and skills for independence. From the time our students arrive, we assess their individual interests, passions and desires to build a project based curriculum to meet their needs. In so doing, we ensure they are well prepared to achieve their goals and succeed.
We are looking for enthusiastic and dynamic teachers who are open to learning a modern approach to teaching pupils with social, emotional, mental health needs. Our teachers and leaders are empowered and supported to design the curriculum activities to meet the needs of their children.
We are creating a diverse community of professionals and would welcome applications from a range of backgrounds including unqualified teachers who have vocational specialisms, NQT's, primary, secondary and FE. We have a strong emphasis on learning through physical activity and developing vocational skills, so if this is your passion please get in touch. A shared attribute should be a desire to always put young people first and support them to achieve meaningful and aspirational outcomes.
We understand the importance of building meaningful relationships with pupils and families to nurture growth and development of relational milestones such as, building trust and sharing enjoyment. Care and making connections are at the heart of our ethos and we work hard to ensure that all staff feel cared for too.
We are strongly committed to providing high quality professional development for all our staff. As part of a new and growing group, we will be able to offer significant opportunities to work in collaboration with colleagues in order to develop innovative teaching practice.
The well-being of our staff is an important priority; therefore we provide opportunities to ensure we value their hard work and dedication and promote a healthy work-life balance. We are constantly reviewing our practices to ensure that our staff can focus on what matters: providing a rich environment in which children and young adults can learn and thrive.
We recognise that our schools all serve their own communities and are unique, but we also insist that our schools follow Spaghetti Bridge ways of working which ensure that there are high expectations and equality of opportunity for all our pupils.
