Job overview
Join us on our amazing adventure to make THE difference
The school provides high quality pastoral care” - Ofsted 2023
Are you driven by a passionate belief that excellent schooling is the right of every child?
Do you believe that we must never accept that personal circumstances, socio-economic background or prior attainment will inevitably limit young people’s potential?
Are you committed to the transformational power of education to shape lives and futures?
If so, we want to hear from you!
We’re seeking an unapologetically determined EHCP Coordinator to join our team at Alvaston Moor Academy. We are looking for someone who is passionate about supporting SEND students and families to obtain the necessary support.
We’re looking for professionals who are ambitious but humble, innovative but research-led, and warm and compassionate, with unapologetically high standards, to join us on our mission to take Alvaston Moor Academy in Derby from its current position to become one of the very best schools in the country.
In a community where almost 70% of pupils qualify for pupil premium funding, for more than a generation the school has struggled to consistently be the great school it can be, and that its young people, their parents and the community of Alvaston are entitled to.
In the last decade the school has seen periods of real improvement, but progress has often not survived changes in leadership, and positive changes have proved short-lived.
In 2021 Alvaston Moor began its latest journey of improvement as part of Archway Learning Trust. Once again improvement has come – recently recognised by Ofsted – but this time there is no alternative to ensuring that it is sustainable. And more than this, that the school finally delivers on its potential, demonstrates to its community, the city of Derby and the whole world that our children have as much potential as children anywhere.
Do you want to be:
* part of this story?
* part of the team that breaks the cycle of hard-won improvement followed by debilitating turbulence?
* part of the team that delivers on a promise to a community that has never stopped wanting, but might have stopped expecting, the best for their children?
* part of a team serving a community that, put simply, deserve the very best?
If this sounds right for you. If you have the passion, the grit and the resilience to embark on this journey with us and you’re looking to take the next step in your career – we want to hear from you!
The successful candidate will be committed to the students and academy life and will possess the ability to communicate effectively and be able to improve the quality of teaching across the academy.
In return, we can offer:
* Archway benefits to include shopping discounts and competitions
* A free and confidential employee assistance programme offering counselling and advice
* Access to Teachers’ Pensions/Generous pension scheme
* Access to discounted travel schemes
* Cycle to work scheme
* Comprehensive training and support
* Opportunities to develop new skills and progress your career
* Eye care voucher scheme
* Free flu vaccine
* Access to e-learning and development
It is important that potential applicants are able to find out as much as possible about both our academy and the role as they consider making an application. We welcome visits and can be flexible around timings of the day to suit. We are committed to doing all we can to support those interested in researching more about what it is like to work in our proudly inclusive, ambitious academy as part of our AMA team. Pre-application visits are therefore very welcome.
Closing date: 9.00am on Wednesday 23rd October 2024.
Interview date: Thursday 7th November 2024.
We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
