Description

Located on the stunning Jurassic Coast and with the East Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty close by, Exmouth Community College is one of the largest secondary schools in the country with over 2300 students.

The College is seeking an outstanding, committed and efficient member of non-teaching staff to assist the SENDCo. This permanent post offers a unique opportunity for an ambitious, creative and enthusiastic individual to jointly manage the SEND Department within the context of the whole College vision.

The post holder will support the SENDCo in the role defined in the SEND Code of Practice, School Teachers Condition of Service Document and College policy documents.

The Learning Support team consists of approximately 25 Learning Mentors, supporting students across the Curriculum.

The team is managed by three Assistant SENDCos, with smaller groups being managed on a day-to-day basis by Senior Learning Mentors.

In addition, the Learning Support Administrator supports the team.

In conjunction with the SENDCo and Senior Learning Mentors, the post holders will help to ensure that all students that identify as having a Special Education Need (including those with statements or Education, Health and Care Plans) receive their full entitlement and have access to a relevant curriculum.

The post holder will manage and coordinate the day-to-day provision made by the College for students with SEND.

Purpose of the post:

Manage the processes that ensure students with additional needs are identified, supported, monitored and offered appropriate interventions if they are not making expected progress.
Administer the processes involved in securing high quality provision for students with SEND.
Provide and support the leadership and management of a significant number of people within the SEND Department (Learning Support office staff and the Learning Mentor team).
Work under the direction of the SENDCo to ensure there is consistency within the SEND Department in the implementation of College policies and procedure, in order to ensure that the expectations of students are consistently high.

This is an exciting opportunity for a suitably skilled person to join the College and work in its community of highly motivated staff, enthusiastic students, supportive parents and knowledgeable Governing Board.
