What skills and experience we're looking for
About the role
This is a new and exciting role which will provide the successful candidate with the opportunity to develop and deliver high quality, effective provision for children with mild to moderate ASC and/or S&LC needs.
With extensive support from colleagues in school and the wider Trust, the teacher will play a pivotal role in developing the unit – not only in planning and implementing engaging and innovative curriculum experiences for the children, but also in helping shape the unit’s culture and ethos that will underpin its long term success.
Whilst work is already underway on the practical aspects of setting up the unit, we are keen to ensure that the successful candidate has the opportunity to input into key decisions before September, including the design and resourcing of the unit, and the recruitment of the wider team.
Given the nature of the role, the successful candidate will bring experience of teaching children with SEND, including supporting children with ASC and/or S&LC needs. This is likely to have been through specialist provision in a mainstream school or a special setting.
Just as important is that the new teacher shares our passion and commitment for excellence – for doing the best we possibly can for the children in our care, and the enthusiasm and drive to make the Hatch SEND Unit an exceptional place for pupils to learn and grow.
More detail is provided in the attached job description. If you would like to discuss the role in more detail and/or to arrange a visit to the school, please contact Emma Johns (Headteacher) via the school office on 01823 480616.

About the school
Hatch Beauchamp is a village about 10 minutes to the east of Taunton. It is home to the small primary school with 30 children across two classes, and with a reputation for being particularly caring and inclusive. The schools prides itself on its Christian values, and aims to ensure all pupils feel happy, secure and valued – enabling them to make a positive contribution as young people in their community.
The new unit will support 6 to 8 Key Stage Two children with mild to moderate ASC and/or speech, language and communication needs who may struggle to make good progress in a mainstream class on a full-time basis. Pupils will be supported by a team of three in the unit (teacher, HLTA, LSA) who will deliver tailored provision, underpinned by the ACE curriculum. Staff assigned to the unit will be supported by a wider team in the school as well as specialist staff from across ACE.
The unit will benefit from a specially designed classroom, an ‘experience workshop’ and outdoor space to support effective, tailored provision. However, it is important that unit and its pupils are an integral part of the wider school, with opportunities built in for children to integrate with their mainstream peers wherever possible.
