Job description
The Head Teacher and Governors wish to appoint Family Support Workers to support the early help needs of the families of our pupils. This person will be part of the Children’s Services team and report to the Head of Pastoral Care. The successful candidate will work with several external agencies and complete home visits as part of this role. There is the opportunity for this post to be part-time for more than one candidate if necessary.
The successful candidates will join an experienced team of teachers, STLAs and LSAs who support young people aged 3 to 16, ranging in ability from pre formal to formal learners (equivalent range from previous Pscale P3i to end of Y2- KS1 expectations). The successful applicant will promote the school ethos through high levels of expectation, being an adaptable team player, promoting growth mindset through recognition of character education and be able to encourage pupil independence. In specific we are looking for applicants who have experience in working with pre-verbal pupils with complex needs. However, other relevant experience will also be considered.
Brackenfield School is committed to the safeguarding of all children. Due to this post having access to children and/or vulnerable adults, the successful candidate will be required to undertake a Disclosure and Barring Service check. The possession of a criminal record will not necessarily prevent an applicant from obtaining this post, as all cases are judged individually according to the nature of the role and information provided. Brackenfield SEND School is committed to promoting equality of opportunity, preventing unlawful discrimination in all of its activities and to valuing diversity.
