Accountable to: Phase Leader
Here at Alder Tree, we are embarking on a journey, not only to transform children’s lives, but to work with all our stakeholders including parents, carers and the local community to ensure we are providing a world class education and giving each child the best possible start to their education ensuring that they continue their journey to become the very best that they can be.
We strongly believe that our vision, values and culture drive us to not only transform the lives of our young people but transform the local communities which we so passionately serve. Alder Tree Primary is a unique and very special place to work.
Alder Tree Primary Academy is part of White Rose Academies Trust.
White Rose Academies Trust is a local trust dedicated to raising and fulfilling the ambitions of young people. Our academies throughout Leeds are at the heart of the communities they serve, which is why we are committed to delivering an outstanding education to every one of our students.
Role:
In this role, you will play a vital part in supporting our teachers and wider professional team to ensure every student can access learning—both in and beyond the classroom. You will deliver tailored work, care, and support programmes that enable students of all abilities to thrive and fully engage with their education.
Working closely with the class teacher, senior staff, and the Special Educational Needs Coordinator (SENCO), you will contribute to a broad range of teaching and learning activities that inspire, challenge, and meet the diverse needs of our learners. You will help shape a creative, inclusive, and ambitious curriculum that complies with statutory requirements and reflects our commitment to high quality education for all.
Through regular, targeted support, you will accelerate students’ progress and remove barriers to learning, ensuring they can fully access the curriculum and achieve their potential.
The trust currently employs over 500 members of staff and is responsible for educating and developing almost 4,000 students between the ages of 3 to 16. The Trust consists of three secondary schools - Leeds City Academy, Leeds East Academy and Leeds West Academy, and our primary school.
We believe the trust is a highly desirable place of work for an ambitious professional, who will be joining one of the most supportive and talented teams in the country.
