We are now recruiting for the post of Inclusion Advisor. The successful candidate will be one of our leading professionals in this specialist area across the whole Trust, providing strategic support to subject and senior leaders in all academies. The role will focus on supporting academies in Inclusive practices, ensuring that they are meeting the needs of their SEND learners effectively in line with the best evidence-based research, our commitment to IB programmes and the Ofsted Framework. You will report directly to a member of the Trust Executive and will be part of a team of a wider team of central experts, each leading on a different specialist area. You will be based at our Strood Head Office, but will inevitably want to spend a good deal of your time visiting our academies to provide the strategic support necessary to raise standards.
We are looking for a special education expert with superb knowledge and skills in this area. You will currently be an outstanding senior leader working within SEN. Your focus will be supporting leaders across the Trust to ensure the best possible provision for pupils with SEN. This will involve working with our two special academies, the several specialist resource provisions in our mainstream academies (primary and secondary), plus pupils with EHCPs and who have SEN wherever they are in our Trust. You will be a high-performing SEN professional with a strong commitment to raising standards for young people with SEN. This is one of the most exciting job opportunities for career progression and satisfaction in our Trust today. We look forward to appointing a dynamic individual with ideas, skills and dedication to ensure our SEN pupils enjoy the best education possible.
We wish to hear from you if you are committed to changing our education world and are:
- an enthusiastic, energetic and ambitious leader with a successful track record at the primary and/or secondary level;
- a motivational and inspirational leader with high expectations of staff;
- confident and able to communicate a clear vision for the school;
- able to develop children to reach their full potential regardless of background or circumstance;
- approachable and keen to work with staff across the Trust to ensure wide success;
- able to establish and develop excellent relationships with the community and other stakeholders.
