About this Role

Do you want to be part of a team where you will help make a lasting impact on our scholars, many of whom are disadvantaged, and rapidly accelerate their progress?

Do you want to work in a school where you are free to teach, with impeccable scholar behaviour and unhindered by bureaucracy?

 

We are values-driven and our vision is to provide an inclusive, aspirational and academic education for all our scholars, so that all of them will learn, thrive and lead successful lives. We are unapologetically ambitious for every child, no matter what their background, prior attainment or needs. We want to ensure that all our scholars have the option to be able to go to university or aspirational alternative. We are not going to reduce expectations because of a child’s background or home life, or because they are new to English or have a special education need. In fact, the opposite is true. It is our job to redouble our efforts to help children overcome these barriers so that they can flourish.

 

What we offer:

  • Huge support and progression opportunities
  • A knowledge rich curriculum, built on ‘powerful knowledge’ and a traditional Teaching & Learning approaches built around Rosenshine and TLAC
  • Excellent support from the Astrea Trust Central team
  • Highly visible/supportive senior leaders who have your back
  • Centralised detentions, including homework detentions (you do not need to organise/run/chase them at all)
  • Excellent ongoing CPD, career development and promotion opportunities across the Astrea South Yorkshire region
  • An unrivalled professional progression model.


What we are looking for someone who will:

  • Take a lead role in the research, implementation, training/coaching, monitoring and ongoing development of specific strategies as directed by the SENDCO
  • Support with the effective coordination of the Academy’s Special Educational Needs and Disability Provision
  • Plan and deliver specific learning interventions to groups/individual scholars.
