Overview
Be part of a team where passion meets purpose, as we work together where the challenge is greatest to change the lives and build the futures of children and young people. We are seeking a passionate, nurturing and highly skilled SEND Specialist Teacher to join our inclusion team and lead targeted intervention provision for students with additional learning needs across Key Stage 3 and Key Stage 4. This is a unique opportunity for an exceptional practitioner to work with small groups of students who require additional support to access learning, build confidence and experience success within a mainstream secondary setting. The successful candidate will play a vital role in helping students close gaps in learning, develop independence and successfully reintegrate into mainstream lessons where appropriate.
OIEA is an inclusive Academy, and our success to date is due to the fact we live and breathe our CARE values of Courage, Ambition, Respect and Excellence. These values help to determine our strong culture and create a climate in which every member of the school community is able to develop and improve. We are relentlessly positive and passionately care about the community that we serve. We prioritise and cultivate a sense of belonging for all and believe in development over judgement and a philosophy of continuous improvement. We are looking for brilliant individuals to join this forward-thinking Academy and develop the quality of teaching and learning in our SEND department. We are research led and evidenced informed. We have 980 students currently on roll between 11-16 yrs.
