Summary
What skills and experience we're looking for
The ideal candidate would have experience of working in both specialist and mainstream settings; although our priority is to appoint the right teacher for this position and so all previous experience, skills and qualities will all be considered. All children within the unit will have an EHCP and so experience of attending reviews and supporting children with high needs is essential.
We aim to inspire our children to find their talents and their passion to learn through a broad and balanced curriculum. Applications are therefore welcomed from highly motivated teachers who are keen to work with the children within the ERB and across the school, providing an exceptional education and supporting our children to achieve their best.
At Woodcote we rise to the challenge and aspire to be the best that we can be. Our aim is to recruit a team member who has a love for teaching and can provide an exciting curriculum and learning opportunities for all our children.
We are looking for a teacher who:
• Is passionate about teaching and learning
• Is committed to ensuring that every child has the opportunity to learn
• Has experience of teaching children with additional needs
• Is willing to deepen their own learning in order to support our children
• Can adapt their teaching to meet the needs of the individual child
• Has a good understanding of the varying needs of children with communication and interaction difficulties
• Is able to lead a team, and work well as part of a team
• Has a great sense of humour
What the school offers its staff
Woodcote's inclusivity is one of our greatest strengths with experience of opening and running two ERBs successfully.
We can offer:
• A unique opportunity to be part of setting up our newest ERB
• Children who are a joy to teach
• Coaching from experienced dedicated staff
• Opportunities to develop professionally across the primary age range
• The support of a hard working team of staff and governors
Further details about the role
The new ERB will have a cohort of 10 children joining in EYFS, and most will remain in that class during their primary school journey, with the possibility of accessing some mainstream lessons when they are ready.
The successful candidate will be part of the exciting journey of setting up the new base with the support of experienced colleagues who have already made that journey.
