Those
Huge Small Victories
Our
teachers are fulfilled by the idea of making even the smallest
positive changes in our young people, so we celebrate the little
things. There’s lots of ups and downs, and to some of our young
people, sitting through a lesson can be a big win. We call these
huge small victories and whilst they may seem small on the surface,
they add up to make a big
difference.

You’ll be
working with children and young people with Autistic Spectrum
Disorder/Social, Emotional and Mental Health needs. You’ll be there

huge small victories that you achieve will be something you’re
really proud of.
It can be a
tough journey, but the positive steps forward will more than make
up for it. As a Teacher at Witherslack Group, you’ll get all the
support you need to succeed, from in-house psychologists, to
teaching assistants and therapy professionals. Your colleagues will

well-resourced and we’ll be with you every step of the way, helping
you build a rewarding teaching
career.
One
of the best environments in
SEND
The
transformational effect of Avon Park School is consistently
witnessed by parents, carers and professionals alike. The
school’s ability to connect and engage with pupils is a result of
its strong ethos of “high expectations and aspirations for every
child” – and recently achieved an Outstanding rating by
Ofsted.
All school staff, including teaching,
pastoral and therapy, work in a truly collaborative way to ensure
each pupil not only develops academically but also emotionally and
personally. This ‘whole school’ commitment sees pupils with
ADHD, ASD, Asperger’s or SEMH grow into capable and confident young
people who want to
succeed.
