Sheffield, United Kingdom Whirlow Hall Farm Trust Full time

**For a full job description please visit our website at**

**The Farm That Helps Children and Adults Grow**

We inspire, nurture and expand horizons for children and adults with special educational needs and social, emotional and mental health difficulties so that they can make the most of their potential. Whether it’s linking in with South Yorkshire mainstream and special schools and colleges or working directly with families we aim to provide a structured and highly nurturing, person-centred programme tailored to helping our students develop essential life skills, grow in confidence and reduce the risk of isolation. We also host residential visits for schools and deliver day visit experiences so that pupils can learn in a different environment, grow in confidence, and develop bonds with peers and teaching staff.

JOB DESCRIPTION - Education Lead Officer
Term Time Only, 36.25hrs per week.
Starting the 17th April 2023, or as soon as possible after this date.

**Background**

Whirlow Hall Farm is a 130+ acre mixed farm on the edge of Sheffield. It has 3 purposes:

- It provides the resource for much of the Trust’s charitable work which is focussed on educating attendees, about the environment, farming and food.
- It is a place for the public to visit and enjoy, particularly at weekends and during school holidays, raising funds to support the charitable work of the Trust.
- It provides produce for the Trust’s commercial operation to sell - either through on-site outlets, local businesses or at off-site events.

**General**

We are looking for a calm yet enthusiastic role model with a sense of adventure and love of the outdoors who wants to help inspire secondary school aged children to explore their capacity for growth; physically, emotionally, and creatively.

The children we work with have a wide spectrum of additional learning needs, disabilities, and social, emotional, and mental health challenges brought about by past and current trauma. We wholeheartedly believe that working with animals and engaging in countryside activities, as part of a farming community, promotes therapeutic transformation, building confidence and resilience.

You will be outside and on your feet most of the day engaging in a wide range of physical activities. It is essential that you are physically capable and have experience and skills that can be applied to develop meaningful learning experiences that meet our students’ individual abilities. The practical aspects of our programme currently focus on animal care, horticulture, cooking, countryside skills and crafts and wider outdoor education and confidence building activities. To be the next piece in our jigsaw puzzle, your skills should complement and enhance this offering.

Besides significantly contributing to the day to day running of the farm and developing practical skills, we focus on nurturing individualised aspects of personal and interpersonal competencies identified during referral and via our continuous monitoring processes. Emotional resilience and patience will also be key strengths to enable you to work successfully with our students.

You will be joining the team responsible for the management, planning, delivery and monitoring of our Whirlow L.I.F.E. (Learning In a Farming Environment) programme aimed at KS3 - KS5 students. Where appropriate, you will also deliver a range of practically focused awards to promote engagement and aid progression to the next stage of each students learning journey. We are therefore looking for applicants who have experience of working with this age group and possess the confidence, positivity and creativity to engage them in practically focussed outdoor and occasional indoor learning. Whilst we don’t expect applicants to be experienced in all the practical aspects of our programme, we do expect applicants to be highly motivated to develop these skills and to feel confident leading groups as quickly as possible. Training on all aspects of the farm will be provided where there are gaps in experience.

You will be working five days a week, term time only. Group sizes range from 4 to 6 students and are supported by staff according to the needs of the students within each group. It is therefore essential that you can manage the sessions to maintain a stimulating, controlled and safe environment. Whilst you will be primarily working on our KS3-KS5 programmes you will be expected to support our SEN adult programme if the need arises.

**Duties**

Development and delivery of sessions for secondary aged children and adults with Additional Learning Needs.
- As part of the team, continually develop, plan and deliver a varied programme of engaging activities for all our students.
- To continually track and review student engagement and implement effective strategies to ensure all needs are being met for the students you work with.
- Role model professional behaviour as outlined in the behaviour management policy.
- Liaise with external
