College Hall Pupil Referral Unit is no ordinary educational setting, something all our young people pick up on straight away. Most have a history of complex life circumstances and social, emotional or mental health needs, and it’s up to all our staff to help them find the confidence they need to reveal the bright personality that’s inside. We are expanding our provision and are seeking skilled teachers who are passionate about making a difference.
Our pupils have often experienced significant life challenges and have unmet needs. Strong relationships and empathy are at the heart of everything we do. When pupils join us, they are welcomed by flexible and caring staff who understand that all behaviour is a form of communication and who will help them to develop emotional resilience.
We are looking for an experienced and qualified teacher to join our expanding provision. We are committed to achieving the best outcome for each pupil and their family through access to excellent education and family support.
Essential requirements to be successful in the role are:
• Able to build strong positive relationships to ensure our vulnerable and disadvantaged pupils maintain the capacity to learn in order that they are prepared for their next phase of education and life
• Able to ensure commitment to the school’s trauma and mental health informed approach and understand the learning needs of pupils impacted by attachment and trauma
• Be a Qualified Teacher (holding QTS or equivalent) or willing to work towards achieving QTS.
• Current successful teaching experience at KS3 and KS4.
• Evidence of ongoing professional development.
• Experience of supporting pupils with SEMH.
• Demonstrable knowledge and experience in delivering lessons up to GCSE effectively

College Hall Pupil Referral Unit is part of Bracknell Forest LEA’s provision for pupils, who are out of school. Consequently, it serves pupils from both semi-rural and urban areas and a range of backgrounds. Most pupils, however are from the more deprived wards.
Most students placed at College Hall have been permanently excluded from mainstream schools. However, it is also possible for pupils to be referred for fixed periods of approximately two terms by mainstream schools. Seventy-five per cent of students are in Key Stage 4.
The majority of pupils at College Hall PRU have identified needs in the area of social, emotional and behavioural development at School Action or School Action Plus. A proportion of them have statements of special educational needs. Many students also have associated learning difficulties and although College Hall caters for the full range of ability, the majority of pupils are assessed as being in the average to below average range.
College Hall aims to provide its students with a broad and balanced curriculum, which matches, as far as is possible, the curriculum offered in mainstream schools. A key aim of the Pupil Referral Unit is to equip students in Key Stage 4 with the knowledge and skills to enable them to progress into appropriate Post-16 provision.
