We do things differently at Canbury - because everyone is different. If you are an inspirational and experienced teacher and know how to teach in a way that is accessible to all, then come and join us. We know not everyone learns in the same way, so we teach in many different ways.
As noted in our most recent ISI inspection (February 2024):
* ‘Pupils attitudes to learning are very positive. Their behaviour in lessons is very good, and they work extremely well collaboratively to support each other within and beyond the classroom.’
* ‘The large majority of pupils develop the skills and confidence to combat any personal obstacles that they may face.’
* ‘Pupils throughout the school persevere in solving problems supported by teachers and learning support assistants who establish high expectations, promote a ‘can do’ attitude, and do not accept specific learning or emotional needs as a barrier to achievement or allow pupils to rely on these as an excuse for lack of ambition.’
As a member of the Canbury community, you will join a vibrant school where high standards are expected of staff and students. We are a thriving school, with just 76 students, from Year 7 to 12, on roll at any one time.
About the role
We are seeking a passionate and dedicated Teacher to join our team and lead our foundation group of Year 9 students. This is a unique opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of students with mild to moderate SEND, providing them with a supportive and nurturing learning environment. The successful candidate will be able to teach a range of subjects to a small mixed group of students, requiring a broad and adaptable skill set.
Working as part of a team is vital, and you should be able to work constructively within a cohesive and busy school where the children are genuinely at the heart of everything we do. It is essential you enjoy working with neurodiverse students.
This role would suit a strong Primary trained teacher or a Secondary trained teacher who has experience or the skill set to teach a broad range of subjects.
