About our Vacancy
Due to the retirement of our long-standing and successful PE teacher, we have a golden opportunity for a teacher who actively collaborates in an ambitious team to make a daily difference to the lives of autistic children who have an Education and Health Care Plan.
We are particularly keen to hear from you if you have experience of delivering tailored and personalised learning programmes for children with SEND and a specialism or special interest in physical education and development. As all children here have an EHCP and are working significantly below age-related expectations, the role is more likely to suit those who are trained/experienced within Early Years, Primary or Special settings. ECTs and those with SEN experience and /or experience of making provision for autistic individuals are also welcome to apply. We operate an EYFS/Primary model of teaching up to and including Year 13 with some specialist teaching in Y10-13.
The successful applicant would deliver PE programmes across the whole school age-range in conjunction with daily and weekly sports coaching programmes and also have responsibility for arranging and leading on whole school sports events. We have excellent indoor and outdoor facilities and resources including a fitness suite, trampolines, bicycles and wave boards, Daily Mile track, large sports field, MUGA and playground space.

* Passionate about high quality personalised provision for children with autism.
* An excellent teacher with experience or expertise in working with pupils with complex needs in EYFS/Primary/Special Needs.
* Will be an excellent role model, especially encouraging positive relationships with everyone they come into contact with.
* Equipped with strong inter-personnel needs.
* A resilient practitioner committed to further development.
* Someone who loves working closely with others to change things for the better.
We offer:
* Friendly, enthusiastic, delightful pupils and students who teach us something new every day
* A committed and caring staff team who support and develop each other
* A proactive and supportive SLT who are actively mindful of workload
* A collaborative approach to planning and problem-solving
* A comprehensive induction and an ongoing extensive CPD programme
* Opportunities to develop your skills and talents
