Senco

Fulham Primary School is now firmly established as a vibrant, high-achieving and highly regarded community, with a growing reputation for excellence. Following a recent Ofsted inspection in which the school was judged Outstanding in all areas, the school is entering an exciting new phase in its development. We are looking for a SENCo who will help us continue driving this ambitious vision forward. As part of a cluster of five United Learning schools, Fulham Primary School benefits from a highly effective leadership network. The successful candidate will work closely with the Head of School and alongside other experienced Inclusion Leads in the cluster. This provides exceptional opportunities for collaboration, shared practice, professional support and leadership development. We are looking for an exemplary practitioner with a remit to ensure that children with SEND are taught effectively throughout the school, an excellent communicator, and a team leader who can raise the standards of attainment and achievement across the school. NASENCO qualification is desirable. Candidates who do not yet hold this qualification will be supported to undertake and achieve it following appointment. Applications will be considered on a rolling basis, and suitable candidates may be shortlisted and interviewed before the closing date.

United Learning is a large, and growing, group of schools aiming to offer a life changing education to children and young people across England. United Learning schools work as a team and achieve more by sharing than any single school could. The subject specialists, Group-wide intranet, own curriculum, and online learning portal all help us share knowledge and resource, helping to simplify work processes and manage workloads for an improved work-life balance. As a Group, we can reward our staff better: with good career opportunities, better pay, benefits, and ultimately, the satisfaction of helping children to succeed. We invest in our staff wellbeing. Our academies each have at least eight INSET days per year (with three of those solely dedicated to planning), and an ongoing group-wide wellbeing programme. It's an ethos we call 'the best in everyone'. We are working hard to become a more diverse organisation - which is key to our commitment to bringing out the best in everyone. We welcome applications from everyone committed to this ethos and would particularly welcome applications from black and minority ethnic candidates, who are currently under-represented in the Group as a whole. We always appoint on merit, and we are open to discussing flexible working options. United Learning is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. All positions are subject to an Enhanced Disclosure and Barring check from the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) and shortlisted candidates will be subject to an online check. Here at United Learning, we are committed to ensuring our employees feel valued and appreciated. Because we are a group, we can reward you better than any school could alone, and this includes your employee benefits. By working for us you will benefit from more pay, more time, and more support.
