Are you a qualified SENCO looking for a new, dynamic working environment and a challenging new role? Are you looking to provide support for some of the city's most vulnerable students, with the aim of having a direct and long-term impact?

  • Experience of managing a team of teaching support staff and liaising with teachers regarding differentiation
  • Liaising with external agencies and local authorities regarding inclusion and EHCPs
  • Possess QTS and NASENCo/ relevant qualification in SEND provision

The successful SENCO will receive:
