Head of Learning Support

We are looking for an exceptional professional who has the passion, commitment and knowledge to enable each child to reach their potential. If you are a dedicated, experienced person who is keen to contribute towards our vibrant school, we would like to hear from you.

The Downs is a close, happy community and it is expected that new members of staff will be fully committed to the ‘all round ethos’ of the school and the pastoral needs of each child.

We offer our children, a stunning rural setting, excellent facilities and a talented team of supportive colleagues. Candidates will be inspirational practitioners who have energy, enthusiasm, and co-curricular interests to share.

The Learning Support Department is an essential part of the school. It is increasingly multi-dimensional and provides support for a number of our children. Some of these children have specific learning needs such as dyslexia and dyscalculia, a small number require speech therapy and others simply need a little support to enable them to cope with the expectations of the classroom at The Downs.
