Job overview
St Augustine’s RC High School is a large and friendly school, under the Trusteeship of the Salford Diocese and part of the Romero Catholic Academy Trust, which welcomes pupils of denominations and world faiths or no faith. Our community is one in which we aim for our pupils to be safe, happy and successful in a positive atmosphere where every person is known, valued and given the support and guidance they need while being excited by the challenges and opportunities before them.
The Board of Directors of the Romero Catholic Academy Trust, alongside the Governors of St Augustine’s RC High School, are seeking to appoint a committed and skilled SEND Classroom Teacher to join our specialist provision, “Gateway”. This role focuses on teaching pupils working significantly below age-related expectations, broadly in line with the primary curriculum, who have moderate to severe learning difficulties, including significant speech, language and communication needs. The successful candidate will deliver a broad, balanced and highly differentiated curriculum which supports pupils’ academic progress alongside their social, emotional and communication development.
The role combines high-quality classroom practice with strong pastoral care and a commitment to inclusive education. You will play a key role in creating a nurturing, structured and engaging environment in which pupils feel safe, supported and able to achieve their full potential.
We welcome applications from primary trained teachers with experience of SEND, as well as teachers currently working within special school settings. Staff with proven experience supporting groups and whole classes of children in a mainstream setting who are working significantly below age-related expectations are also encouraged to apply. The successful applicant will work alongside an additional Teacher of SEND and two HLTA’s.
If you feel you have the right skills and attributes we are looking for, then we will be delighted to hear from you. Visits to the school are warmly welcomed and can be arranged by contacting the school office on 01254 823362 or Head@sarchs.romerocat.com.

Mission Statement:
“We act justly, love tenderly and recognise God in our lives.”
Faith and Love
At Saint Augustine’s, we want our young people to act justly, love tenderly and recognise God in their lives. Working with families, we will educate children in accordance with the principles and teachings of the Catholic church.
Our faith is nourished through the Eucharist and we want everyone at Saint Augustine’s to experience the joy of the Gospel in their journey through school and beyond. We will foster in all members of our community a love of God and a love of others as Jesus taught us.
Care and Support
We believe that every person is made and loved by God. This is why we respect each other, value human dignity and consider the needs of the poorest and most vulnerable.
We want our pupils to be safe, happy and successful at school. We will provide an environment that inspires, encourages and supports their development through nurturing their gifts and talents and will instil in them the importance of the common good and the stewardship of creation.
Ambition and Success
We aim to provide pupils with the knowledge, skills and attitudes that they need to be successful at school and in later life.
We will work to fulfil the potential of every member of our school by providing an education that values the whole person and promotes personal and spiritual growth.
Together we will send out our young people to make a difference in our community and in the wider world.
