SENCO Coordinator

Launceston College Multi Academy Trust are looking to appoint a SEN and Inclusion Coordinator (SENCO) to work across all three of our Trust Primary Schools including Launceston Primary School, our brand-new school. The SENCO is responsible for inspiring and motivating the school community to develop effective ways of overcoming barriers to learning and promoting effective teaching and learning for children with specific needs. This is a wonderful and unique opportunity to be an instrumental part in shaping the future of our community. 

As a SENCO, you'll be an experienced teacher with a passion for supporting pupils with special educational needs. Working closely with the Executive Principal and other senior colleagues, you'll use your leadership skills to manage provision in the schools and to provide support to other teachers.

The role of SENCO can be highly rewarding, as you'll have the opportunity to directly contribute to pupils receiving the support they need, to achieve their potential. You will be based in more than one school and may also have a teaching timetable, so you'll need to balance your work as a SENCO alongside your other responsibilities of teaching and preparing for classes.

Your responsibilities will include designing and delivering interventions with pupils in the classroom and implementing the school strategy. You may also have classroom teaching duties and could be working in one school or across all three schools. You will be empowered to ‘think big’ as part of a dedicated team of Primary colleagues who are passionate about opening up a world of opportunity, exploration and experiences to our children.

Main pay range 1 to Upper pay range 3, £25,714 to £41,604, and TLR2 dependent upon experience.
