    Salary: £61,839
    Hours: 35 per week

    Opened in 2002 Rowanfield Special School (Primary) is situated in North of Edinburgh and is part of the Craigroyston High School cluster. The school meets the additional support needs of children from 5-12 years of age with a wide range of barriers to learning. The school serves a wide area with pupils travelling from across Edinburgh and the Lothians. Pupils are placed in school following a referral to a professional assessment group (CMRG).

    The school is divided into three learning and teaching pods, each of which consists of three classrooms, a base room and a general-purpose area. The shared areas include the gym hall, art room, teacher resource room, family room, nurture classroom (The Zone), Relax Kids room with a sensory room, visiting therapists' room and the most amazing Soft Play

    There are 11 teaching staff (including HT, DHT & 2 PTs). They are supported by 15-17 support staff including a Pupils Support Officer, Pupil Support Assistants, Behaviour Assistants, Administrator, Business Manager and the Therapet labradors Pepsi & Tango

    The staffing model reflects the degree of individual care and attention that our young people require to help meet their needs. The school has a multi-agency approach to working with the children and includes Educational Psychologists, Speech and Language Therapist, Occupational Therapist, School Doctor, Nurse and Health Assistant and Community Mental Health Workers. In addition to this we work in partnership with Edinburgh Together, ASL, Social Work and other family support agencies.

    Ideally you will have a strong knowledge of the curriculum, be an excellent practitioner, have experience with a range of needs, understand the influence adult's behaviour has in a school and have a track record in building relationships, creating a safe environment that promotes learning and raising attainment. Most importantly the successful candidate must have a sense of humour, be able to think creatively and be ready for the most rewarding of challenges.

    This post is regulated work with children and/or protected adults under the Protection of Vulnerable Groups (Scotland) Act 2007. The preferred candidate will be required to join the PVG Scheme or undergo a PVG Scheme update check. Where an individual has spent a continuous period of 3 months or more out with the UK in the last 5 years, an Overseas Criminal Record Check will be required. You will be required to provide this check. An unconditional offer of employment and commencement in the post will be subject to the outcome of both these pre-employment checks being deemed satisfactory.

    We're committed to creating a workplace culture where all our people feel valued, included and able to be their best at work, and we recognise the benefits that a diverse workforce with different values, beliefs, experience, and backgrounds brings to us as an organisation.

    Requirements

    As part of our goal to improve our organisational culture and create a great place to work together for the people of Edinburgh, we want to make sure that we're bringing the best people into our roles, not just in their skills and experience but also in their approach to work.
