We are seeking a passionate, nurturing and highly skilled SEND Intervention Specialist to join our inclusion team and lead targeted intervention provision for students with additional learning needs across Key Stage 3 and Key Stage 4. This is a unique opportunity for an exceptional practitioner to work with small groups of students who require additional support to access learning, build confidence and experience success within a mainstream secondary setting. The successful candidate will play a vital role in helping students close gaps in learning, develop independence and successfully reintegrate into mainstream lessons where appropriate.
