Many of the students in the school will have a Social and Emotional Difficulty. The school are looking for an individual who enjoys variety in their work life and thrives on team work. The school itself has some great transport links too.

The school concentrates on ensuring that the pupils all work to their own strengths and keep the classes small to a size of 7 pupils per class on an individual timetable. There are a lot of vocational courses that the school offers such as construction and hair and beauty. You will help them to lead the life they choose. The school focuses on person centred support, tailored to individual's needs.

There is also an opportunity of working 1:1 with pupils that you build a good relationship with to ensure that they get the best out of their lives. The students that need specialist 1:1 support look for patient and supportive staff members who are persistent to support them to learn and excel. The students love routines and enjoy spending time in their classes as well as working in small intervention groups whilst learning the core subjects of English, Maths and Science. The right person will need to show confidence and understanding that they are ready to build on a friendship with the students within the classroom and support them with their learning.

The current staff are fantastic and very engaging with the pupils and other staff members, the class teachers are full of ideas and will help the right person settle in well to the classroom
