Telford, Telford and Wrekin, United Kingdom Queensway Full time

We are seeking to appoint an innovative and inspiring teacher to join our forward-thinking secondary phase from September 2024. It is a fantastic opportunity to join an established team that has excelled in so many areas.

This post is suitable for both experienced and newly qualified teachers and is an exciting opportunity for a dynamic, ambitious and energetic individual. Experience of working with students with SEMH issues or a diagnosis of Autism is preferable but not essential. You will have the opportunity to deliver in key stage 3 and 4, ensuring that learning at Queensway is exciting and meets the diverse needs of our students Our vision is to develop resilient, confident, happy and successful individuals through an ambitious and relevant curriculum offer and innovative and engaging teaching and learning strategies.

Queensway School

Queensway was established as an academy in March 2018 when it became part of the Learning Community Trust. It was the result of a merger of an autistic provision which had previously been linked to HLC Secondary and a SEMH school that required a sponsor and a new start. All of our students have an EHCP.

Queensway is across two sites – the North site in Hadley is a school for children with a diagnosis of Autism. The school has a PAN of 60 but due to demand for places always has additional students. It is a modern purpose, self-contained building on a lovely site with sensory and quiet rooms as well as a Sports Hall and good outdoor spaces. Queensway North has achieved the Autism Accreditation Kite mark from the National Autistic Society and our skills and strategies are worthy of their award. The school itself then 'leads' on Autism training both with the Local Authority and some external organisations.

The south site, in Dawley, is for students with a primary need of SEMH. It has quiet rooms, teaching spaces and an excellent purpose-built skills centre for practical work which is where our new provisions for motor vehicle and hair and beauty are situated. Queensway South's PAN is 54 and the other students are in Y7-11.

Both sites offer an extensive curriculum which includes English, Mathematics, Science, Design Technology, Art and Physical Education, Creative iMedia, Engineering, Forest Schools Motor Vehicle, Hair and Beauty, Duke of Edinburgh and Photography. We have newly introduced Independent Living and Life Skills. Social skills/education permeates through the curriculum on both sites preparing our students for life as young adults.

All students are encouraged to take a range of examinations which best meet their needs from the differentiated curriculum which is individually designed by the experienced staff team. The outcomes have improved year on year and in 2022 over 90% of students gained five or more GCSEs at Grade 1-9 including English and Maths which was a significant achievement.

Both sites have their individual teaching teams, support staff and highly experienced Pastoral leads who also lead on safeguarding. We are fully staffed but are exploring different staffing models to support the children, the new Headteacher appointed in September 2020 will lead on this.

Queensway prides itself on its close working relationships with parents and good communications between home and school happen on a daily basis.

You will join a Trust steeped in a culture of wanting the very best for our children and is very ambitious for its schools. As a school, you will be joining a community that will do anything to make their children's lives successful whilst preparing them for the next steps in their lives.

Learning Community Trust

We are very proud to be a part of the LCT. The expertise and skills the staff have across the trust is invaluable in sharing best practice and our experience in working with children and young people with SEND is greatly valued in our mainstream schools. We are the only provision in Telford and Wrekin for students with these needs, all our young people have an EHC plan and we work with the LA over admissions.

The LCT mission is very simple; we are driven to be an outstanding MAT for our community with a clear vision to provide the best possible education for all the children and young people in our Trust, helping them to be successful in all they do both now and in the future.

The Learning Community Trust was established in June 2017 following agreement with the DfE/RSC to establish a MAT in this community. Not only were we approved as a MAT but we are also an academy sponsor. Our first academy conversions, when we became operational were:-

· HLC Secondary

· HLC Primary

· Queensway Special School

Our Trust has now grown to ten schools which include Charlton and Ercall Wood secondaries alongside Wrekin View and Crudgington primary schools, Severndale Academy and our most recent Lantern Academy. We are also building a new primary free school in Telford. We are also supporting other schools within the county and beyond.

Our MAT spans education from 2-year-olds in our nurseries through primary and secondary education as well as specialist provision for autism and SEMH in our school. In addition, we have established a great partnership with Telford College and work with them on post-16 transition and curriculum.

We keep our aims at the forefront of all we do, they represent our values as well as our intentions:

· To focus, across our schools, on excellence by achieving the best possible educational outcomes for our children and students by engaging and inspiring them, building their resilience and preparing them for work and adult life.

· To drive a collaborative culture across our schools which drives and supports improvement and develops all our staff as leading professionals

· To provide the highest levels of care and support for our children so they can succeed, including those that are the most disadvantaged, vulnerable or with special needs in our community

· To ensure our schools are at the heart of the community they serve and are truly inclusive organisations with equality for all across our community

· To engage positively with our families and wider community, building partnerships and programmes that develop opportunities beyond the school sector.

We have four strategic objectives which drive our work:

1. Our learners are engaged and successful

2. We have high quality staff across our Trust

3. We have a culture of continuous improvement

4. Our leadership and Governance is exemplary

The Trust currently has over 5000 students, over 1000 staff and we operate a budget of over £42 million, and this makes us a very viable Trust and a significant provider of education in Telford and Wrekin. For more information, have a look at our website
