The Primary Inclusion and Wellbeing Service provides a range of services to children, young people and families who, for a variety of reasons, are finding it difficult to engage with education.
Our children and young people have often experienced a range of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and some have diagnosed conditions such as Autistic Spectrum Disorders (ASD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) - recognising this informs our practice.
From P1 to P7, we support our learners to engage in bespoke packages of education both on-site and in community based settings, even when life is at its most challenging.
Our pupils benefit from being surrounded by a resilient, caring, skilled team of staff who see beyond their behaviour and work to their strengths. The significant pastoral role carried by all Primary Inclusion and Wellbeing Service teachers is a key attraction for many who have joined us.
We are looking for a fully qualified GTCS primary registered teacher in the Primary Inclusion and Wellbeing Service.
