United Kingdom MLK Education Search Full time €50,000 - €70,000

Assistant Headteacher / SENCO Contract: Full-time, Permanent
Start: January 2025 or as soon as possible thereafter

MLK Search is pleased to be supporting this unique, co-educational school for young people aged 11-18 who have found previous schools overwhelming, and thrive in a smaller, more nurturing and therapeutic environment.

This is a small school with big ambitions, a truly caring and collaborative culture, and eyes only on the education of the young people who require an alternative environment due to their mental health and social challenges.

With class sizes limited to 8 and a maximum capacity of up to 70 students, this is a calm, flexible and supportive learning environment where students can study at their own pace.

Each student has an additional need associated with social, emotional, and mental health. Most have an EHCP, generally related to self-exclusion, anxiety, depression, or self-harm, and require a calm environment in which to learn, as opposed to behaviours that challenge or school exclusions.

The school maintains an academic approach that operates a High School model, accessing GCSEs and providing a BTEC option in Food Technology. The successful applicant will be an experienced and inspiring leader who is truly dedicated and passionate about SEN/SEMH education. You will have a strong background within therapeutic SEN education, a deep understanding of neurodiversity and experience working with children and their families navigating challenges related to SEMH.

Alongside the Headteacher, SLT and therapy team, you will • Lead and evaluate the strategic development of the SEN and therapeutic provision to meet ever changing need. • Provide professional guidance and support to colleagues and liaise and work collaboratively with staff, parents, and other agencies to ensure that pupils receive appropriate support and the highest quality of teaching and learning. •
