Forest Provision Leader

As Forest Lead, you will take overall responsibility for the leadership, development, and day-to-day running of our Forest Provision site, supporting an exciting phase of growth as we expand provision linked to the new Juniper House secondary SEN school. You will play a key role in shaping a high-quality outdoor learning environment that serves pupils aged 5–17 across Amegreen Education settings and external referrals. This includes overseeing site operations, maintaining robust risk assessments, and ensuring all health and safety procedures are consistently implemented. Alongside operational leadership, you will design, deliver, and coordinate engaging Forest School and outdoor learning experiences that are safe, inclusive, and developmentally appropriate for learners with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND). You will lead and support a team of learning mentors within the provision, ensuring consistency, strong behaviour support, and a positive learning culture. The role also involves building and maintaining effective partnerships with external schools, Local Authorities, and Amegreen Education settings, ensuring the provision supports pupil transition, engagement, and reintegration into education. At its core, this role is about embedding a Forest Provision that reflects the values of holistic, nature-based learning—supporting young people to build confidence, resilience, and a renewed connection to education.
