Summary
What skills and experience we're looking for
We are delighted to appoint an exceptional candidate to the role of Specialist Base HLTA at Exmouth Community College.
Our Specialist Base at ECC will support students with Education, Health and Care Plans (EHCPs), where the primary areas of need are Communication and Interaction, and Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH). This full-time provision will serve up to 20 students within a dedicated, thoughtfully designed space, tailored to meet a wide range of individual needs. At its heart is a clear ambition: to empower every learner to develop the independence and confidence required to access the wider opportunities of school life.
This role extends beyond the base itself. We are seeking a professional who is passionate about sharing their expertise across the whole school community, supporting students with similar needs to those in the base, and helping to build inclusive practice at every level.
We see our Base model as more than a provision—it represents the beginning of a wider, locality-based approach to education. By offering high-quality specialist support within students’ own communities, we aim to reduce the need for long-distance travel and ensure that more young people can thrive in a familiar, inclusive environment.
Enable the Trust to realise its mission to ‘Transform lives, strengthen communities and make the world a better place by supporting and assisting students in early years to learn and flourish.
