Location: Oakham Shires School, Rutland, LE15 6JB
Salary: Up to £39,000 per annum depending on experience (not pro rata)
Hours: 37.5 hours per week, Monday to Friday 8.30am - 4.30pm
Contract: Permanent, Term Time only
UK applicants only. This role does not offer sponsorship.
Interviews to take place on Tuesday 7th October. We are looking for a teacher with subject lead experience to join our team at Oakham Shires School.
About The Role
Experience of closing the gaps for disadvantaged and SEND pupils would be beneficial as you would be supporting autistic teenagers that have struggled throughout their school journey to achieve their academic and life goals.
Class groups are small, allowing you to focus on each pupil’s needs; all of our pupils are treated as individuals and we recognise that one size does not fit all. We adapt our teaching to meet individual needs. A knowledge and understanding of autism and developmental trauma would be beneficial. We use an approach that supports pupils in their own time and space, focusing on behaviour for communication to aid social and emotional development. We have a strong safeguarding culture, where pupils are listened to, respected and involved in decisions where possible.
You will be a clear communicator and resilient, with a compassionate, caring manner and a mature, non-judgemental approach to life.
At Oakham Shires, we have a maximum of 6 pupils per class with adult support, reducing paperwork, and we allocate 7 hours per week of non-contact time for training, PPA, meetings, etc. Staff enjoy a cooked lunch with pupils each day and time is set aside to focus on staff wellbeing.
