SENDCo (UPR 3 + TLR 1.1)

Thank you for your interest in Alder Grange and the SENDCo role which we have available. We are ideally looking for someone with Qualified Teacher or Instructor status and a sound knowledge of the SEND Code of Practice. The ideal candidate will have successful teaching experience, a clear understanding of what constitutes effective teaching and intervention strategies, and excellent data analysis skills to inform provision planning.

We were Ofsted inspected in January 2022, and are thrilled to have maintained our “Good” rating. We are rightly proud of our school ethos and values. Every experience we offer our students must reflect these values, and all members of our team have a role to play.

We have a strong history of supporting staff through training – therefore, this role could also suit someone with relevant qualifications or someone who is currently gaining them.
