Can you make a difference to the lives of Luton’s children and Young people who have a visual impairment? 

Are you an outstanding secondary school teacher who holds the mandatory qualification for teaching children and young people with Visual Impairments (QTVI).

Cardinal Newman Catholic School seeks to appoint a highly motivated, experienced and dynamic teacher with an excellent track record in secondary school teaching to advise secondary schools and colleges across Luton on how best to meet individual visually impaired learners’ needs. You will be liaising with educational professionals, medical professionals and children and their families. You would need to be an excellent teacher and have great time management skills. You would need to be able to work across the community to support, engage, value and maximise learning of children and young people with a visual impairment.

You must be a committed, passionate and qualified teacher, with exam access experience and a passion for supporting children and young people to maximise their learning. You will need to know UEB braille and have the mandatory QTVI qualification to fulfil this role. We will support you as you work closely with the Primary School QTVI for babies to 11-year olds, who is already well established within the Luton area. 

 ‘The school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.  Applicants must be willing to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers, prohibition order check and the Disclosure & Barring Service.’
