Our brand new special school for primary-aged learners (KS1, KS2 + Yr7) opened in September 2024 in the Fishponds area of Bristol and we're recruiting for a SEND Teacher (Primary) to join the current staff team. Elmtree Grove School is open based on the successes of learner outcomes at our 9 Elmtree Learning Partnership AP sites operating since 2022 www.elmtree-learning.org.uk . The school supports up to 28 learners and has plans to increase learner capacity in the future. All of the learners we support are vulnerable and have an EHCP to define their additional needs. Creativity, perseverance and an empathetic approach is key to engaging our learners in education and ensuring their progression. We are inviting applications for a SEND Teacher (Primary) to join our established team and inspire our learners. Our learners need enhanced support to develop their language & literacy skills. Often, our learners have missed significant periods of education so require an empathetic, patient approach with creative, enjoyable & accessible lessons.
