SEND Co-ordinator

Full-time, permanent

MPS/UPS and TLR 1

The SENDCO at Beechen Cliff is an exceptional opportunity for an ambitious and self-motivated teacher to lead the SEN Faculty and manage a committed team of Teaching Assistants in this high performing Bath school.  

The school is seeking to appoint a SENDCO, starting September 2019, with a commitment to excellence and to ensure all pupils reach their full potential regardless of their educational needs.

Heads of Faculty at Beechen Cliff have a significant degree of autonomy and operate within the school’s ‘can-do’ culture – and as such the successful candidate will be encouraged to be creative, take their own initiative and lead the development of the SEN Faculty.  The SENDCO will be expected to demonstrate outstanding practice in leadership, management and in their own teaching.  

In addition, the SENDCO will have to demonstrate the ability to deliver outstanding academic achievement through rigorous diagnosis of individual students’ needs, strengths and weaknesses along with the implementation of appropriate and targeted support programmes.

The School has a vibrant extra-curricular life which includes sport, music, debating and public speaking.  A willingness to contribute will be a clear advantage.  The Application Pack is available on the Beechen Cliff School website and attached to this advert.   Applications should be made by via the TES Quick Apply by noon on Monday 25th February 2019.  Interviews are currently planned to take place on Tuesday 5th March 2019.
