The post is allocated to Harlescott Education Centre, Featherbed Lane, Shrewsbury, SY1 4QN

We are looking to appoint a skilled and enthusiastic teacher to join the team at the Harlescott Education Centre. Harlescott Education Centre caters for students aged 5 – 11 years. The service has recently been rated as Good by Ofsted and the report acknowledged that:

At the heart of TMBSS lies a belief that all pupils should leave as confident young people who are 'world ready'. Inspirational leaders, caring staff and well-planned support combine to provide the right support at the right time.

Relationships are a strength at TMBSS. Some pupils believe education is not for them before starting here. However, at TMBSS, they quickly become settled and happy to learn, knowing they are cared for and that support is available.

Applicants need to have experience within an education setting, teaching across the primary phase, have a good understanding of Special Needs and be confident in issues relating to pupil behaviour and classroom management.

The Education Centre provision offers placements for primary pupils experiencing behaviour and learning difficulties within the mainstream sector. The work can be both demanding and rewarding and involves direct teaching, assessment and close liaison with mainstream schools and other professionals.

Many students join TMBSS with undiagnosed or unmet additional needs. The service gains a clearer understanding of those needs over time through well-considered interventions and support. For some, this means an accurate identification of special educational needs and/or disabilities and a support plan. For others, it means uncovering the need for intensive short-term intervention to support mental health needs.

TMBSS is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. This post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act and as such, all applicants who are appointed to this post will be subject to an Enhanced Disclosure and appropriate pre-employment checks before the appointment is confirmed.
