We are seeking to appoint a dedicated and committed Assistant Headteacher SENDCo at OA-North View, a new 30-place AP SEMH provision in Tilbury, Essex, planned to open in September 2025. Our ideal candidate would be an experienced teacher who will support whole-school SEND practice, developing partnerships with external agencies and parents/carers in supporting pupils with SEND. This is an exciting opportunity to support the setup of the new provision, working with the Head of School, Executive Headteacher and other trust leaders to build a team, and plan and run a transition programme to support pupils and their families. Once open, you will support the day-to-day management and leadership of OA - North View by ensuring the vision and values of the trust are embedded and achieved. You will play a vital part in the school as a leader ensuring it is a beacon of best practice in the education and care of pupils who have experienced considerable difficulty in a mainstream school so that they can re-engage with education, make good progress, achieve academically, and, wherever possible, return to a mainstream education
