Assistant Head Teacher

Due to a change in structure, and to support exciting developments within the school, we have a vacancy for an Assistant Headteacher (with SENDCo responsibilities). This role will be based within the Senior Leadership Team, working to lead inclusion across the current school site and with a strategic overview of the new building project, specifically the development of two Resource Base classrooms, with support from colleagues within school and the local area.We are looking to appoint an enthusiastic, dynamic member of staff who could take on the role of Assistant Headteacher (with SENDCo responsibilities) to continue well developed inclusive practices within the school and to have the exciting opportunity of working alongside other school based and local leaders to strategically plan for the embedding of that inclusive practice, when the resource base classrooms open. We anticipate that the majority of this role would not be classroom based but more focused on wider provision, planning and management.This vacancy presents a unique opportunity to join The Grove at an exciting time of growth and progression. The Grove has well established leaders who are able to provide support and mentoring, to aid the success of this role. The school is also in the process of joining the EquaMead Trust (subject to planned merger) meaning the opportunity for collaboration, professional development and learning from other colleagues- especially those within the established resource bases across the trust- are rich and plentiful.We are interested in hearing from established teachers with a secure knowledge of SEND and a passion for embedding an ethos of inclusion and equity. This would be an excellent opportunity for someone who feels they have some leadership experience, which they would like to progress further, and is looking for the next exciting step within their career. Candidates would need to hold the National Award for SENCOs (NASENCO) or be interested in commencing the NPQ for SENCOs (the replacement for NASENCO) qualification, supported by the school, within the Autumn Term of the 2024-25 academic year.IMPORTANT:We do not accept CV's, to apply for this post please follow the apply link provided to complete an application form or direct link to the external organisation.Any CV's submitted on Total Jobs will not be considered.
