Job overview

The Governors of this caring and successful school wish to appoint a motivated and outstanding Middle Leader to join our dedicated team at this exciting time in the life of the school. We are looking for a Middle Leader who wants to make a real difference to the lives of our pupils through effective leadership and management, quality assurance and curriculum development.

The successful candidate will be responsible for leading, managing and inspiring a team of teachers within the Informal Teaching and Learning Group, to ensure standards for teaching and learning are high and best inclusive practice is developed.  Pupils in the Informal TLG are working at a level where they require a very bespoke approach and style to learning.  These pupils are not yet accessing National Curriculum subjects and their EHCP outcomes are at the centre of their teaching and learning.  Pupils have a range of needs including PMLD, SLD, ASC, VI HI and complex medical and/or physical needs. We are seeking a Middle Leader who is a role model for their team and can support and challenge colleagues to develop teaching and learning performance to ensure all learners within the TLG maximise their achievement and progress.  

Broomfield South SILC is a generic all age, co-educational day school maintained by Leeds City Council at present and will be joining Cockburn MAT in the near future.  Our pupils and young people (2-19) have a wide range of learning difficulties, including Autistic Spectrum Condition. 

 We offer an inclusive setting operating on the main Broomfield site and two mainstream partnership sites:

• Windmill Primary School

• Rodillian Academy 

This enables us to meet a wide variety of pupils’ needs and provide support and advice to the community.

Staff can be expected to work on any of the three sites if required.

Applications from mainstream colleagues would be welcome but experience of teaching pupils with special needs and Autism Spectrum Condition across the age range would be an advantage. 

The successful candidates will have;

• The ability to lead and manage staff teams effectively to ensure excellent outcomes for young people

• Experience of effective curriculum planning to ensure inspirational teaching, learning, assessment and behaviour management strategies to ensure learning is engaging and inclusive.

• Knowledge and understanding of working with pupils with PMLD

• Experience and skills of teaching pupils with a range of Special Educational Needs to secure excellent outcomes

• The ability to effectively quality assure provision and provide reports and action plans to further develop identified areas

• Excellent communication, organisation and interpersonal skills and an ability to work collaboratively with all stakeholders

• High expectations of yourself and others; leading by example to develop a culture of professional learning

• Experience of effective deployment of staffing and resources

• Experience of leading professional development and supporting and challenging staff teams 

• A commitment to making contributions to the full life of the school

In addition, the following personal qualities;

• Resilience

• Ability to use initiative

• Enthusiasm and the ability to motivate and inspire others and hold them to account 

• Willingness to reflect and share effective practice with others

• Creativity 

• Able to work well as part of a middle leadership team

In return we can offer:

• Friendly, enthusiastic and highly motivated young people

• The support of our strong, caring and committed staff team including SLT and the Governing Body.

• A comprehensive CPD programme with a commitment to developing your skills and career progression

We promote diversity and want a workforce which reflects the population of Leeds. Applications are welcome from all, irrespective of sex, sexuality, race, religion, marital status, age, or disability.
