We are recruiting three temporary Specialist Peripatetic Advisory Teachers (secondment or temporary contract) to start from 1 September 2026 (earlier start may be available) until 31 March 2027.

Posts are based in Chesterfield, Alfreton and Woodville. These are full-time roles, however, applications for alternative working hours will be considered. The posts are subject to teachers' pay and conditions. .

Inclusion Support Advisory Teachers work intensively with schools to strengthen inclusive practice and enable children and young people to remain successfully included in mainstream settings, particularly where needs are complex and require coordinated, timely support.

You will work collaboratively across Inclusion Support Services and the wider Education and Inclusion departments, championing inclusion and driving sustainable change for children and young people with special education needs, including those with complex emotional needs and behaviours that challenge.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Build school staff knowledge and capability to increase inclusive capacity across Derbyshire.
  • Provide specialist advice to enable inclusion for children and young people with additional and complex needs.
  • Develop, implement and contribute to plans that support access to learning and belonging, including personalised learning, transition and longer-term support plans (including into adulthood where required).
  • Work with headteachers, SENCos, teachers and pastoral teams to shape inclusive learning pathways and support confident progression to the next stage of education.
  • Analyse inclusion-related data to identify vulnerabilities, development needs and effective solutions across schools and services.
  • Maintain a clear focus on enabling and empowering professionals to meet learners’ needs.
  • Partner with schools and settings to model best practice and share practical resources and strategies that improve access, progress and inclusion.

It is essential that you refer to the person and job specification for more details on the roles and the experience required.
