Job overview
SENDCo
MPS plus TLR 1d (£8,705)
Required for January 2022 or sooner if possible.
We are looking to appoint a committed and passionate teacher to become our new SENDCo. You will be joining a diverse and thriving learning community, one that places an inclusive and Christian ethos at the heart of all that we do. You will have responsibility for the learning of those students with SEN and other individual learning needs. Ideally, you will be an experienced Middle Leader or hold a similar role at a senior level and be looking to progress your career.
Applicants may already have the National Award for SENCOs. However, we are happy to receive applications from staff who understand and are working with the SEN Code of Practice, and we will support them to gain the NASENCo qualification.
Working in close partnership with other Middle Leaders, the SENDCo will successfully ensure all teaching staff have a strong understanding of the range of SEND and how to best ensure all students can access a full and rich curriculum offer. Ideally you will have experience of leading a team and working effectively in partnership with external agencies. What counts for us is your unrelenting drive to make a difference to the life chances of our students. We value all students in our school equally and firmly believe that all students are entitled to experience success.
We are offering a full-time position but we would consider 0.8 FTE for the right candidate.
For further information and details on how to apply, please see the relevant documentation within the application link at TES jobs online. Alternatively, contact the school for an application pack at: apply@ssso.southwark.sch.uk
Please note that applicants must use the school's application form. Submission of CVs alone will not be considered.
Application deadline: Monday 28th June at 12 noon. Applicants are encouraged to apply early.
Interviews are likely to take place on 1st or 2nd July 2021.
Our school is committed to the safeguarding of children and all our appointments are subject to a satisfactory enhanced DBS check. We are committed to equal opportunities and are a living wage employer.

St Saviour’s and St Olave’s is a popular oversubscribed Church of England comprehensive girls’ school with Specialist Science Status. The school has interesting roots going back to 1562 under the Charter of Elizabeth I. Every member of the community is valued and there are high expectations of all and from all. The ethos of the school is built on Christian principles; care and support; challenge with academic rigour and excellent relationships throughout the whole school community. Students have said that they feel safe and appreciate having a voice in the school.
The school is an oasis for staff and students in the middle of inner London. We are an inclusive multi-cultural school which admits students of other faiths and no faiths as well as Christians.
The school takes full advantage of a host of world class educational and cultural opportunities. We are recognised as providing outstanding enrichment involving a wide range of activities and including every member of staff and all students. There are field study courses, school journeys at home and abroad, theatre and gallery visits. Music flourishes and there are opportunities for participation in, for example, Mandarin, drama, basketball, rowing, zumba and the work of the chaplaincy as well as homework clubs in every subject area. A contribution to the extra-curricular life of the school is expected from all staff.
There are 769 students including 148 in our sixth form. Student data shows that 48% of year 7 – 11 students qualify for pupil premium. Over 50 different home languages are spoken and 16% are on the SEN register. Most teaching is done in mixed ability groups, although there is some setting in English, Maths, Science and MFL. In years 10 and 11 all students follow a broad common core with additional “option” subjects. A broad range of subjects are offered in the sixth form to enable students to follow their own personalised timetable.
