What skills and experience we're looking for
A Tough Role. A Transformative Reward. A Legacy to Build.
This is an emotionally demanding role, but it is also one of the most meaningful, purpose driven opportunities in education today.
You will see growth others thought impossible, help children rewrite their stories, and be part of something much bigger than a job.
What We’re Looking For
We are seeking someone who:
• Believes deeply in the power of relationships
• Leads with warmth, consistency and unconditional positive regard
• Understands child development, attachment and SEMH
• Can stay calm while supporting pupils through dysregulation
• Wants to help shape a new provision at its very beginning
• Has the resilience to persevere and the heart to connect
Why This Is a Unique Opportunity?
As our KS2 Nurture Teacher with leadership responsibility for Nurture across both sites (KS2 & 3), you will:
• Shape and refine our new nurture spaces and ethos
• Design trauma‑informed pathways and interventions
• Coach, guide and model nurture practice for colleagues
• Influence strategy across an expanding SEMH school
• Build environments where children feel safe, valued and believed in
This is not simply joining a school it is helping create the next chapter of a specialist SEMH provision within the highly respected New Bridge MAT.
What the school offers its staff
New Bridge Multi-Academy Trust is a vibrant, aspirational and inclusive multi-academy trust of eight special schools and two specialist post-16 provisions across Oldham, Tameside and Rochdale. As part of the wider New Bridge Group there are also two post-19 provisions. Our settings support a wide spectrum of needs from age 4-19 and beyond. The Trust is proud to be national leaders in Special Education and has a culture of creating outstanding opportunities for all.
Thomas Ashton School is on the brink of an exciting new chapter, and we are looking for a practitioner with deep compassion, resilience and vision to help shape it. This is your opportunity to be part of the design, launch and leadership of a brand‑new Nurture provision in Tameside, part of a long-term legacy programme that will change lives for years to come.
This work will be tough. Our children have complex needs, significant SEMH challenges and often histories of trauma.
But the relationships you build…
The trust you earn…
The breakthroughs you witness…
They will be some of the most rewarding experiences of your career.
At the heart of everything we do is unconditional positive regard the belief that every child deserves consistency, dignity, safety and an adult who will stay with them, even on the hardest days.
We can offer you
• A supportive and values-led culture
• Generous pension scheme
• High quality continuing professional development (CPD) through our dedicated Everyone Learning Team
• Hospital Saturday Fund (HSF), with access to HSF Assist and Perk Box
• Trust TOIL Scheme for all staff
• The opportunity to be part of our thriving team, who are committed to creating meaningful futures for both our students and staff
