Can you make a difference to students finding mainstream challenging?

Slough and Eton is looking to relaunch our Shepherd Centre in January 2025 and as such we are looking for a qualified teacher to successfully lead and manage the Centre. The Shepherd Centre will offer a small group of our students, that have found learning in a large, mainstream secondary school challenging, time in a smaller setting on site. They have a personalised curriculum designed to help them be ready to reintegrate successfully back into the mainstream. The curriculum helps them to re-learn successful behaviours for learning whilst continuing to access the wider curriculum.

You would be expected to lead on all aspects of the Centre, including internal referrals, providing the lead on a personalised curriculum and planning the successful reintegration back into mainstream lessons and the school.

We are relentlessly focused on ensuring great teaching, learning and experiences are at the core of what we do in line with our mantra: Work Hard, Be Nice, No Excuses. We value experienced teachers joining our staff team as much as we do those new to the profession and encourage teachers at all stages of their career to apply. We also welcome applications from colleagues who may wish to explore flexible working arrangements.  Previous SEND experience would be a significant advantage.

Slough and Eton is a great school in Chalvey, Slough and is easily accessible via the M4/A4 and only a 20 minute walk from the Elizabeth Line at Slough train station.
