We are seeking to appoint  a motivated and resilient teacher to join our hard working, dynamic and enthusiastic team, who shares in our determination to transform the life chances of young people who attend Melland High school. Whilst we are looking for a candidate who has experience of working with young people with SEND, applications from candidates who are able to demonstrate a commitment to develop their own skills and knowledge in order to become an outstanding practitioner are warmly welcomed.

Melland High School is part of Bright Futures Educational Trust which is a partnership of twelve schools based in the North West. We are committed to our vision: ‘The best for everyone, the best from everyone’. Everything that we do is underpinned by our commitments and our values of community, integrity and passion.  We never forget that we are here in the service of children, families and communities. In order to get the best from our young people we need to invest in our workforce providing opportunities for people to work collaboratively, to share good practice, and to be supportive, challenging and fair to one another whilst recognising that we are always learning.

The successful candidates will be motivated by the belief that every young person can achieve their potential. Whilst previous experience of working in a SEND environment is desirable, excellent teaching skills and the right motivation, personal qualities and levels of resilience are just as important. In return we can offer a wonderfully diverse pupil population, support in developing best practice in enrichment and creativity as well as extensive continued professional development opportunities.

Please see the attached job description and person specification for a full list of responsibilities and accountabilities.

We are open, supportive and flexible with high-quality CPD opportunities through our Teaching School Hubs and Professional Development Institute.
