classroom teacher

The Special Partnership Trust recognises the importance of developing a properly implemented People Strategy to underpin the overall strategic aims of the Trust. Our People Strategy is designed to help us attract prospective high calibre candidates, as well as drive engagement, productivity and retention of our high performing and high potential employees. It reflects our belief in putting our people first. This does not mean putting our learners second. It is based on the philosophy that if we create a positive and rewarding work environment, if our staff feel motivated, well managed and well supported, they in turn will provide the best possible outcome for our learners.

We are seeking to recruit an exceptional, inspirational, and innovative classroom teacher on a 12 months fixed term basis with the possibility of an extension. The successful candidate will work with the school leadership team to drive outstanding provision and to provide students with an exceptional education and holistic support. You will need to possess the desire and motivation to make a difference to our students' lives. We have high aspirations for all our children and young people and believe that all of our students are capable of making outstanding progress.

• We would love to hear from teachers with experience of special education with QTS and a proven track record.
• Knowledge of the secondary curriculum would be an advantage.
• You should have a real desire and motivation to make a difference to the lives of students.
• You should believe that all children are capable of making outstanding progress.
• You should have experience of working with children who have SEN in either a mainstream or special school provision.

Our Total Reward Offer

We are a specialist educational trust on a journey to raise the bar and set new standards for Special Educational Needs (SEN) throughout the South West. The Trust was founded in 2016 and is currently made up of 6 schools and 4 ARBs. Unlike other trusts, we are purely made up of SEN schools and ARBs. This puts us in a unique position to do things differently. We realised early on in our journey that there wasn't a one-size-fits-all approach. So we developed a philosophy that places our young people front and centre. Every decision we take is based on meeting the needs of our young people and helping them succeed. And when you work with us you'll be joining a specialist educational trust on a journey to raise the bar and set new standards for Special Educational Needs (SEN) throughout the UK. We are not afraid to do things differently and we never settle for ordinary. We aspire to be the best in everything that we do. We provide our young people with the highest quality education, give them access to the best opportunities available to them, and take pride in giving them a sense of self-worth and purpose - built on a foundation of resilience and independence. Through collaboration, co-operation, and creativity - underpinned by an ethos built on inclusivity, empowerment, and transparency - we aim to inspire every single young person (as well as their families and our staff) to be the very best versions of themselves they possibly can. We do this through an ambitious, specialist curriculum that goes beyond school life and focuses on living as well as learning.

We recognise that our total reward offer, has got to consist of more than just money. We seek to provide our staff with a diverse range of benefits that support their day to day needs both at work and outside of work. These include generous leave entitlements and pension scheme as well as access to health/wellbeing tools, training & development, career pathways and opportunities to ensure they feel valued.
