We are excited to offer an outstanding opportunity for an ambitious, creative, and innovative individual to join Heron Hall Academy as Deputy SENDCO in our coeducational secondary school. Our Academy is home to a significantly higher number of students with EHCPs, encompassing a wide variety of additional educational needs.

Great teaching skills are a must, along with the right attitude, personal qualities, and resilience. Flexibility, handling pressure well, and adjusting to the changing needs of students, families, and the school are also vital.
Our goal is to provide outstanding education and transformative opportunities for all our students. We aspire to be renowned for academic excellence and for equipping pupils with the essential skills and knowledge needed to excel in education, employment, and life beyond.
