The successful candidate will have a strong understanding of the 5 roles of support for learning and be able to use these effectively to support learners, staff and families across our school community.
Candidates should have a strong understanding of the principles of nurture and Getting It Right For Every Child. Alongside this, knowledge and understanding of how we can remove barriers to progress and learning, and a range of interventions which support young people would be essential.

All applicants will be considered fairly based on skills and experience. Disabled and care-experienced applicants who meet the minimum job criteria will be guaranteed an interview.
As part of our goal to improve organisational culture and create a great place to work together for the people of Edinburgh, we want to make sure we're recruiting the best people.
