Our school:

Beormund Primary School is a specialist provision supporting children with complex social, emotional and mental health needs (SEMH). We educate and inspire children who have been excluded from at least one mainstream setting so they often arrive disillusioned, disengaged and with a dissociation to school and learning. As engaging and empathetic adults, it is our role to establish what our children excel at. We nurture their curiosity and improve their self-confidence so that they are then able to recognise and celebrate making mistakes. We want our children to flourish - academically, emotionally and socially - and experience the joys of learning.

We are a school filled with bright, articulate and talented children who all have an Education and Health Care Plan (EHCP) highlighting their range of needs. Our children have medical diagnosis such as complex SLCN needs, Autism, ADHD and some have Adverse Childhood Experiences which shapes the way they see and respond to the world.

We are seeking to appoint an experienced class teacher who:

• has secure knowledge of the curriculum, is able to teacher assess and plan next steps.

• can lead and manage a class team.
