Would you like to make a difference to the lives of young people?
We have a very exciting opportunity for a teacher to join our staff at Highfields
College. Due to our expanding team and pupil numbers we are delighted to
offer the opportunity to apply for a teaching position, within our skilled and
well-established enrichment team.
The position is 0.6 (part time), teaching art. However, any candidate wishing
for a full time position may have opportunity to do so through teaching within
another subject area.
Highfields College is a large Pupil Referral Unit, undergoing rapid and exciting
growth. The vast majority of our pupils have been permanently excluded from
mainstream secondary education, arriving with us with a range of SEMH needs.
The aim of our school is to help re-build connections, build positive
relationships and help support our pupils to remove barriers to their learning.
We are trauma informed, attachment aware and restorative in our approach
to working with our young people.
The right candidate will-
- Be able to think outside the box to engage our pupils
- Have an affinity for pupils with behavioural, emotional and social difficulties
- Be positive, engaging, patient and resilient
- Be able to plan and deliver engaging and creative art lessons to a range of
pupils with SEND and SEMH needs.
- Make learning fun!
Although this job opportunity is subject specific we would positively welcome
applications from teachers who have been trained to teach in primary schools,
as well as secondary. Experience of working within an AP is desirable, however
we will happily consider applicants who can grow with us and have a
determination to succeed.
We can offer:
-The opportunity to teach small classes of up to 8 pupils.
-Mentor support in sessions
-Skilled, supportive and committed colleagues
-The opportunity to broaden your teaching experience in a specialist field.
- A school that will actively support you in developing your career.
We warmly welcome visits to our school.
To arrange a visit please contact jo.portnell@highfieldscollege.org.uk and
izzy.tierney@highfieldscollege.org.uk
Please send completed application form to above school address.
ECT’s and trainee teachers due to qualify in the next 6 months are welcome to
apply.
The school is committed to the safeguarding and wellbeing of students and
expects staff to share this commitment. The successful candidate will be
required to undergo appropriate child protection screening including a DBS
check.
