South Lanarkshire Council schools have recently undergone an £800m modernisation programme. The aim of this programme is simple - to create high quality additional support needs and primary and secondary provision in South Lanarkshire - fit for the twenty first century. During this time we have built and modernised numerous Primary and Secondary Schools. It is our mission to make positive meaningful changes in the lives of young people. We aim to provide an exceptional learning and working environment for pupils and staff and work in partnership with parents, support staff and other professionals. We are now inviting applications from Fully Qualified (GTC) Primary Teachers.

About the School: Victoria Park School is situated in Carluke in the Clydesdale area of South Lanarkshire. Our location is within range of a number of small towns and villages and is primarily rural. We cater for pupils from across South Lanarkshire whose additional support needs present as a broad range of severe and profound learning, communication, and health needs. Our vision is that in our safe, happy, fun school we all grow to be the best we can be. We promote our values of equality, kindness, and respect through our curriculum and through our nurturing relationships throughout the school and beyond. Our pupil role for this session is 62 primary aged pupils, P1 to P7. Our pupils benefit from smaller class sizes and higher staff ratios to support their learning. We work in partnership with multi-agency teams to ensure that we are getting it right for every child. To ensure that our learners have appropriately planned learning experiences we follow Curriculum for Excellence (CfE) using Education Scotland’s Milestones to Support Learners with Complex Needs and CfE Experiences and Outcomes. Our assessment includes the use of B Squared Steps to Excellence and Connecting Steps which link to CfE and Milestones. A soft play, a sensory room and hydrotherapy pool is on site to support wider learning and well-being. Pupils have access to an internal courtyard for breaks and play. We share a campus with High Mill Primary School and share a common goal of providing meaningful opportunities for inclusion. Please Apply online - All correspondence will be via your email address.
