Class Teacher

Start date: 01/01/2023

Are you ready for your next challenge? Can you teach and deliver creatively? Are you passionate about making a real difference to pupils with SEND? Are you nurturing, inclusive, empowering, caring, passionate, enriching, encouraging, child-centered and family focused? Are you ready to inspire the next generation of young minds? Are you a relentless children’s champion? Take a leap and become part of the #FountaindaleFamily.

Fountaindale School became part of the award winning Nexus Multi Academy Trust in September 2022. The school has a long history of supporting children and young people aged 3 to 18 with complex physical and sensory needs. Fountaindale is purpose built, vibrant and located in beautiful woodland surroundings.

We believe that inspiring young people with their learning is about giving them a sense of belief that they will achieve their potential. This is an opportunity to build the school ethos from the ground upwards. Be a part of a school that gives children and staff a sense of belonging and is dedicated to its values by developing staff to become even greater. 

We have an immersive approach to our curriculum that is thematic throughout the school. Our classrooms are immersive and allow pupils to work independently and in collaboration together in fun learning spaces. We believe that learning takes place when children feel safe, stimulated and secure and where kindness, care and self-belief are the foundations to learning.

We are looking to appoint a highly professional and efficient Class Teacher. 

You will need to demonstrate that you:

•  Can work in partnership with pupils, families, staff and agencies
•  Are child centred
•  Are committed to supporting the aims of the academy
