The Role
We are looking to appoint an Autism Hub Manager who wants to join our experienced, supportive, committed SEND faculty and make a real difference with our young people. This role further enhances our provision in school and is primarily based within the Autism Hub on site. The hub was established in 2019 in partnership with the LA SEND team.

A forward thinking, dynamic qualified teacher, with experience in providing strategies that have an impact for students with autism is essential for this role.
The faculty is well-established, well-resourced, and highly supportive. Led by a full-time SENDCO and supported by a member of the Senior Leadership Team, the faculty work collaboratively, always putting the needs of our students at the forefront of what we do. We have spacious and equipped rooms within the SEND department and work to support our students across the rest of the school. We would love to show you round our department and our academy. This role offers you the opportunity to develop and excel as a teacher, within a strong and effective team of practitioners. We understand that working collaboratively not only improves outcomes, but also reduces workload.
We offer:
· Salary commensurate to your experience
· A strong and ongoing CPD program
· Opportunities for career development and progression
· Teachers’ pension scheme
· Use of the onsite gym
· A Senior Team that are keen to drive school improvement and are open to innovation and creative thinking
· A strong commitment to staff wellbeing
