Tees Valley Collaborative Trust, based in the North East of England, is a well established organisation with social inclusion, educational excellence and widening participation at the heart of its values.
At the Prior Pursglove College site, we are seeking to appoint a part time Deputy Head of Department on a job share basis to provide leadership and direct line management of teachers and curriculum support staff, provide pastoral care and guidance to students and contribute to the overall development of the Endeavour Department. You will have experience of working with students at foundation level up to level 2 and have an excellent understanding of the main issues affecting young people with emotional, behavioural or learning support requirements.
The age range of students will span from 14 -18 (24 for young people with an EHCP) and adult students in community classes, and there may be some outreach work involved.
Successful candidates must have a degree (or equivalent) in a related subject, along with class teaching experience gained either in a school or college setting. You must have demonstrable high levels of skill in leading teaching and learning.
Strong communication, organisational and interpersonal skills, together with a commitment to working with students from a range of different backgrounds, are also essential.
This is a job share arrangement and the working arrangements will be discussed at interview.
