The school is divided into two buildings on the same site and has a range of specially equipped classrooms to support learners' sensory and regulation needs. The school is situated close to local primary schools and Gracemount High School, facilitating joint working and opportunities for inclusion and integration where appropriate. A key strength of Kaimes School is our multi-agency approach to supporting our learners.

We also have an active Parent Council who support us with our work. We pride ourselves on our positive and inclusive ethos and are committed to enabling learners with Autistic Spectrum Disorder to thrive by raising attainment and promoting achievement through the development of the curriculum and partnership working to meet a wide range of learning needs. This vision is shared with our families and community and is very much part of our everyday practice. Important Information: This post is regulated work with children and/or protected adults under the Protection of Vulnerable Groups (Scotland) Act 2007. The preferred candidate will be required to join the PVG Scheme or undergo a PVG Scheme update check. Where an individual has spent a continuous period of 3 months or more out with the UK in the last 5 years, an Overseas Criminal Record Check will be required. You will be required to provide this check. An unconditional offer of employment and commencement in the post will be subject to the outcome of both these pre-employment checks being deemed satisfactory. We're committed to creating a workplace culture where all our people feel valued, included, and able to be their best at work, recognizing the benefits that a diverse workforce brings to us as an organization.
