Are you looking for your next post within education?  Do you relish the chance to raise aspirations and make a difference?  If so we have the perfect opportunity for you.

We are looking to appoint an outstanding SENCO who is creative, confident and enthusiastic. The primary quality for our SENCO is that they see themselves as a student advocate. You should be able to:

Who are we?

• OIAMFS opened in September 2013 with just 60 year 7 students, we are now full and oversubscribed every year. We are based next to the iconic home of Bradford City Football Club, Valley Parade. 
• OIAMFS is part of the One In A Million family. One In A Million was established in 2006 as a charity that wanted to make a difference in the lives of young people in Bradford through sport, the arts and enterprise. Our name reflects our values: every child is valued and unique. 

What we offer: 

• We are a small school, with approximately 375 students across five year groups, so our class sizes are never more than 26. This means every teacher knows every student. 
• We place students at the centre of everything we do as a school.
• We genuinely value our staff and fully support their development, well-being and career progression.
• Bradford is a vibrant city and our position in the heart of the city provides easy access to shopping, eating out and transport links. 

What you offer: 

• With a diverse student base and range of abilities we are looking for someone who can motivate and inspire our students to achieve their best. 
• You will be a qualified teacher with significant experience working with SEN students. 
• As a small school we sometimes have to take on a variety of roles so being a team player is essential.
