SENDCo

This role requires applicants to be a qualified teacher, with at least five years experience in primary education.

We are a two-form primary school in the heart of Holloway in Islington, North London and serve our diverse community with pride and passion. As a school we have a big focus on a creative approach to learning through art, music and drama and all children over the course of the year will have the opportunity to study at least one topic area in this way.

We have a history of high achievement throughout our school and are particularly proud of the progress that children who experience disadvantage, are vulnerable or have learning delay or difficulty make during the time they are with us; the role of SENDCo is central to this progress.

As a member of the Senior Leadership Team, our SENDCo will have the opportunity not only to shape SEND work across the school but influence and inform whole school procedures, policies and ways of working, as well as supporting staff in their development as facilitators of learning and leaders in their own right.

Safeguarding is, of course, our highest priority and as SENDCo, you will have an important role in this area, building on the already strong practices, relationships and strategies in place to keep our whole community not only safe but thriving and succeeding.

Visits to our school are welcomed and encouraged.
