Job overview
The Willows is a brand new independent special school in South-Hykeham, Lincoln, for young people aged 5 to 16 with Autism, or similar SEND, and social, emotional and mental health needs around their diagnosis. This includes high levels of anxiety, trauma and self-harm. We provide support for those where mainstream education has not been suitable and for those that may be considered as EBSA/EBSNA (emotional based school avoidance or non-attendance).
A great deal of care has been taken to ensure the school provides a nurturing, therapeutic, and stimulating environment adapted to the individual needs of our pupils so they feel safe, secure, and valued at all times. The Willows uses a trauma informed approach in all aspects of school life.
We offer a full academic pathway underpinned by vocational programmes, entry level qualifications and Functional Skills up to GCSE Level and pride ourselves on providing a bespoke, personalised curriculum for all of our learners, including a full therapy offer. As part of our wider curriculum offer, we provide opportunities for our pupils to engage in a variety of practical and off-site activities to promote independence and develop their life skills.
We are looking for devoted, caring, and adaptable teachers with a strong knowledge and understanding of SEND to lead classes in KS2 and KS3. The successful candidates will have a passion for improving outcomes for students, excellent collaborative working and communication skills, a child-centred philosophy, and will be comfortable teaching the entire curriculum and utilising creative methods to do so.
We offer:
- Clear pay progression and professional development structure with support
- A range of development opportunities
- A full CPD programme
- Perkbox - for online discounts, rewards, health insurance, cycle to work scheme, free coffee and much more.
- Staff recognition awards
- Wellbeing and team days
- Company pension scheme
- A work environment which promotes kindness, respect, and safety.
