Those Huge Small Victories

Our Head Teachers are fulfilled by the idea of making even the smallest positive changes in our young people, so we celebrate the little things. There’s lots of ups and downs, and to some of our young people, sitting through a lesson can be a big win. We call these huge small victories and whilst they may seem small on the surface, they add up to make a big difference

Get out what you put in

You’ll be working with children and young people with Autistic Spectrum Disorder/Social, Emotional and Mental Health needs. You’ll set the vision for the future of the school, ensuring we have the right people and plans in place to see that our young people leave feeling proud of what they’ve achieved. You will need to be resilient and dedicated, but those huge small victories that you achieve will be something you’re really proud of.

It can be a tough journey, but the positive steps forward will more than make up for it. You’ll get all the support you need to succeed, from the broader management team, to a range of supporting specialists. Your colleagues will be the best at what they do, the school environments will be well-resourced and we’ll be with you every step of the way, helping you build a rewarding career.

One of the best environments in SEND

Broadbeck Learning Centre is built on the principle of true community and inclusion. Located at the heart of a residential community in Yorkshire, staff provide young people with the opportunity to belong, progress and contribute.

Broadbeck Learning Centre is part of an Integrated Therapeutic provision, with education, care and therapy staff creating an environment of support and stability. There are strong links between the learning centre and the children’s home to ensure the best possible outcome for each young person.
