What skills and experience we're looking for
We welcome applications from candidates who:
• Deliver Excellence: Provide engaging, inclusive, and high-quality teaching tailored to the specific needs and challenges of learners.
• Expert Teacher: Has a deep understanding of the ASC profile and a toolkit of strategies (e.g., TEACCH, PECS, Intensive Interaction, or Attention Autism).
• Are Resilient Team Players: Thrive in a collaborative environment and contribute positively to our unique school culture.
• Build Strong Foundations: Create relationships based on trust, kindness, and respect with pupils, parents, and colleagues.
• Hold High Expectations: Believe unreservedly in the potential of all children to succeed academically and personally.
What the school offers its staff
What We Offer
• A warm and welcoming school culture built on mutual respect and shared values.
• Pupils who are eager to learn, kind, and full of potential.
• A collaborative, supportive staff team with a clear and helpful leadership structure.
• Access to bespoke professional development opportunities across the Rainbow Education Multi-Academy Trust.
• An environment where every team member is valued, supported, and encouraged to excel.
Further details about the role
From September, our school will host a dedicated provision for children with ASC and complex communication and interaction difficulties. This isn’t just a classroom; it’s a bespoke environment designed to bridge the gap for our youngest learners. You won't just be teaching; you will be a key architect in shaping the pedagogy, the physical space, and the inclusive culture of this new base.
What You’ll Be Doing
• The Launch: Work alongside the Rainbow Base Team and Local Authority partners to prepare the environment and curriculum for a September start.
• The Practice: Deliver high-quality, specialised EYFS/KS1 teaching that prioritises communication, sensory regulation, and social emotional development.
• The Advocacy: Act as a specialist lead within the school, modeling best practices for ASC and supporting the wider staff team.
• The Partnership: Build deep, trusting relationships with parents and external professionals (Speech & Language, OT) to ensure a holistic "team around the child" approach.
Because this is a brand-new provision, we are working on an accelerated timeline to be ready for our September pioneers. As the physical setting is currently being transformed into a specialist hub, we are unable to offer site visits at this stage. However, we don't want that to stop you from getting a feel for our vision! We highly encourage prospective candidates to contact the school office to arrange an informal phone call or meeting with our Headteacher, Lottie Harriman. This is a great opportunity to discuss the roadmap for the base and how you might fit into our founding team. School Office: 0151 546 3140
