Job overview
An innovative and exciting opportunity is available at Minsthorpe Community College.
In collaboration with the Local Authority, we have successfully introduced a Resource Provision for students whose barrier to the curriculum is their learning. We require a skilled and experienced teacher to join our outstanding Student Support department.
The role will involve teaching Key Stage 3 students in the Resource Provision and intervening with struggling readers in mainstream lessons.
You will be experienced in teaching at Key Stage 1 and/or Key Stage 2. You will have high expectations and the skills to remove barriers to learning no matter what the students starting point and you will have experience and skill in meeting the needs of students with a range of Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities, at SEN Support and for those with an Education Health and Care Plan.
If this is you, apply for the opportunity to give students with difficulties the skills and opportunities that will enable them to learn vital life and independence skills, prepare them for moving to mainstream lessons and the next phase of their education and prepare them to thrive to the best of their ability in adulthood.
Our most recent Ofsted report (2023) described us as a “Good college” who “invests in staff’s development. This means that staff feel valued and are proud to work at the school ... Leader’s support staff well and consider their workload and well-being." and
“A small number of pupils with SEND access the school’s specially resourced provision. Staff in this provision are supportive and confident. They know the pupils well and target support positively. As a result, staff and pupils’ relationships are secure and pupils learn well.”
The successful candidate will be:
•A dynamic and energetic practitioner with high expectations.
•Fully committed to learning and raising standards.

•A team player who will uphold our College values of Motivation, Commitment and Care.
