- Development of a wider understanding of communities and cultures outside their own
Students will receive an educational diet that includes the National Curriculum core subjects (Maths, English, Science, ICT, PSHE) along with specific, focussed interventions designed to address the needs outlined above.
You will need to share our commitment and vision and would to a team of likeminded colleagues. Our collection of schools is not only changing but also growing. As a result, this could lead to further progression opportunities within our schools over time.
The successful candidate will be able to engage and enthuse our pupils and work cooperatively within a diverse team of professionals from across the education and wider care landscape. Our mantra “we never give up” underpins our approach to working with pupils and guides and underpins our values. This is a fundamental part of The Bridge Street School vision so it is important that the successful candidate can fully embrace and embody this philosophy.

- Regular well-being support
- A supportive environment where your talents will be encouraged, nurtured and rewarded
The Bridge Street School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Therefore, the successful candidate will be required to undergo an enhanced DBS check and other vetting procedures including the provision of two good references.
