Monday 28th April 2025 Mayfield School is looking for a Curriculum Leader for English and communication to join our growing team. Our school is a special school for 310 pupils aged between 2 and 19 with a wide range of special educational needs and disabilities including PMLD, cognition and learning needs and autism. We are proud to be a Unicef Rights Respecting School, on a journey to achieve the gold award. This post involves working with pupils who have persistent differences with social interaction, social communication and understanding emotions. Our pupils need clear boundaries and consistent support with engagement, learning, emotional regulation, and sensory needs. The school is split across two sites - Wheeler Street in Lozells and Heathfield Road in Handsworth. Curriculum Leaders are expected to work across both sites and are typically committed to teaching 16-19 hours per week. In recent years Mayfield has engaged with all stakeholders to design the “Get Real” curriculum to be ambitious for all our pupils and equip them with the knowledge, opportunities, and experiences to succeed. Curriculum Leaders play a key part in continuing to develop our curriculum offer, role modelling and monitoring the implementation of the curriculum and assessing its impact. This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced or aspiring middle leader to really make a difference to the lives of young people and their families through education. We are looking for positive, supportive and solution-focused people who will seek every opportunity to provide rich learning experiences for our pupils and who can show personal resilience and a commitment to children’s universal rights. Applications are welcomed from qualified and experienced teachers who are willing to work with others as part of a strong team. Experience of supporting early career teachers is desirable. Visits to the school are encouraged and can be made via appointment by contacting: HR@mayfield.eiat.org.uk A recent Welbee staff survey showed Mayfield as being in the top 20% of schools, showing that risks of work-related stress and staff wellbeing are effectively managed and controlled. Our team tell us that they value the in-house training offered by the school and welcome the professional development opportunities available to them. We are proud to be part of Education Impact Academy Trust where "better never ends". In addition to the salary, we offer a benefits package for all employees through BHSF and regular opportunities for professional development and growth through the school and as part of the Trust. The trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of pupils and expects all staff to share this commitment. Successful candidates will be subject to all necessary pre-employment checks, including an enhanced DBS, Childcare Disqualification (where applicable), qualifications, medical fitness, identity and right to work. All applicants will be required to provide two suitable references. An online search (and a prohibition check for teachers) will also be carried out as part of due diligence on all short-listed candidates. This post is covered by Part 7 of the Immigration Act (2016) and therefore the ability to speak fluent English is an essential requirement of the role. This post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 and the amendments to the Exceptions Order 1975, 2013 and 2020 which means that when applying for certain jobs and activities certain spent convictions and cautions are ‘protected’, so they do not need to be disclosed to employers, and if they are disclosed, employers cannot take them into account.
