Wolfdale School is a growing 60 place SEMH with provisions in Ratby and Anstey, Leicester. Our first referrals are arriving — children aged 8 to 16 — and we’re searching for a teacher with primary expertise who’s excited by the chance to shape something from the ground up.
You’ll embrace innovative ways of engaging young people. You’ll believe that children should be active participants in their learning — not empty vessels waiting to be filled. We want educators who feel energised by following a curriculum that is bold, creative and bespoke.
Many of the young people who join Wolfdale will have experienced exclusion, rejection and disconnection from education. We want to change that.
What we want from our school:
- A place where everyone belongs. No exceptions.
- A place where young people are known and valued.
- A place where safety is felt through predictable relationships, calm adults and consistent routines.
- A place where conflict is expected — but repair is non‑negotiable.
If that resonates, we’re already speaking the same language.
Our ideal teammate has experience supporting children who have lived through exclusion, trauma, adversity or disconnection from education. You are wholeheartedly committed to relationship‑based and restorative practice — not because you’ve attended the training, but because you believe in it. You understand that behaviour is communication. You stay curious when others become frustrated. You believe that belonging changes lives.
You don’t just value these approaches — you feel them in your core.
Wolfdale School are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Wolfdale School ensure that all our recruitment and selection practices reflect this commitment.
