What skills and experience we're looking for
Bents Green in an oversubscribed school that provides specialist education for young people aged 11-19 with Autistic Spectrum Conditions. We are located across four sites: Ringinglow, Gleadless, Enterprise Works and a Hub at Westfield School. Our vision is simple – to be a great school for all students, families and staff.
Here at Bents Green, we provide high quality, creative teaching and lifelong learning experiences that are personalised to our students and which are designed to promote curiosity and wonder. We celebrate the individuality of all our learners and instil acceptance and understanding of other people’s uniqueness. To prepare them for adulthood, we seek to develop our young people’s knowledge, skills and cultural capital so that they can contribute meaningfully to society while leading happy, healthy and fulfilling lives.
Working closely with our two full-time Co-Headteachers, you will help shape the strategic direction of the school as we negotiate a challenging educational landscape. The role is based at the Gleadless, Enterprise Works and Westfield Hub sites. However, the role will involve working closely with the Ringinglow team. The role currently does not have any teaching commitment.
We are looking for a Deputy Headteacher who:
• is aligned with the schools values – ‘We nurture relationships, We are kind and respectful, We celebrate individualism, We communicate positively and We are lifelong learners’.
• has the resilience, determination and positive attitude that will secure the best outcomes for students with a wide spectrum of complex needs.
• can demonstrate the skills required to support the Co-Headteachers in managing and supporting our team of 200 staff.
• is excellent at problem-solving and is always seeking new ways to develop and secure better outcomes.
• will maintain and further develop a safe and supportive learning environment that promotes wellbeing and personal growth for both students and staff.
• is committed and has a passion for ensuring high-quality teaching, learning and curriculum development throughout the school.
What the school offers its staff
• the guidance and encouragement of a supportive, forward-thinking and expanding leadership team.
• a commitment to your continued professional development.
• The opportunity to work in a complex, growing school where there are multiple ongoing opportunities for personal growth and development.
Further details about the role
Our next Deputy Headteacher will have an understanding and experience of working with young people with ASC in a special or mainstream setting. In addition, they will also have experience of delivering whole school improvement in the areas of teaching, learning and curriculum development. They will have an excellent understanding of safeguarding and have worked with students in a pastoral capacity.
