Tendring Technology College is developing an excellent reputation for SEND provision within the Tendring area. As part of this provision we offer a secondary enhanced provision for students with ASC in North East Essex.  The provision provides for high functioning students with an autistic spectrum condition to enable them to access mainstream provision. We currently have 18 students on our roll and we are seeking a provision leader. The successful candidate will be responsible for delivering a range of interventions as well as elements of the mainstream curriculum. They will also be responsible for the holistic progress of the students within the provision and working with parents and other professionals. This is an exciting opportunity for the right candidate to lead the development of this over subscribed provision.  We are looking to appoint a highly motivated and inspirational practitioner who has proven experience of working with a range of students and has a good awareness of the needs of students with ASC.
