The post is initially until July 2024, but is likely to be extended to meet ongoing student need.

There is more than one post available. Part Time/Job Share considered.

Moor End Academy hosts the Kirklees Additionally Resourced Provision for Visual Impairment (Secondary). The Provision has capacity for 14 places, for those students who have a severe visual impairment or who are blind. There is a high demand for places and the Provision is currently oversubscribed. The team also support over 80 students with visual impairments (VI) in mainstream schools across Kirklees through specialist outreach work.

Students with VI within the Provision and from across the Authority are taught and supported by a combination of QTVIs, specialist VI ETAs, braille and large print technicians, habilitation officers and family support workers.

Students in the Provision are educated with a person-centred and proactive approach to inclusion and are part of the whole Academy community. The Provision offers bespoke curriculum approaches, individually matched to student needs. Students follow one of two pathways - mainstream alongside sighted peers or the achieve pathway, where students follow a primary based curriculum. ETAs are a key part of promoting access for students on both pathways.

Alternatively some students work within the Academy’s Achieve Group. This nurture group follows a Primary based curriculum to provide an accessible, holistic curriculum for a small group of students. Students accessing this group require a high level of differentiation and resourcing to enable them to be successful in their learning and ETAs are a pivotal part of this provision.

Alongside the mainstream curriculum, all students with VI learn and develop through the additional curriculum that gives them skills to compensate for the barriers that their VI creates. There is a clear focus on preparation for adulthood and comprehensive support for transition to the next phase of education and life. This can include: habilitation, braille, specialist IT skills, independent living, advocacy and curriculum support in areas of need. Students also have access to adapted extra-curricular and leisure opportunities.

We are always looking to evolve and work in partnership with curriculum areas to share expertise, skills, experience and instill confidence in all staff across the Academy. We have an open access policy for parents and careers and encourage parental engagement for all activities at the Academy; extra-curricular trips, events and external education experiences such as visits to the Theatre, Colleges and Universities.

At times, you would support students outside the classroom, within the VI Provision to consolidate learning, develop skills within the additional curriculum, social skills and activities for preparation for adulthood and independence.

Moor End Academy is a very exciting school where the Resourced Provision is embedded into Academy life. If you want to develop your skills and knowledge of visual impairment and be part of highly rewarding, vibrant, successful and creative team who are not afraid to take risks, then we’d love to hear from you

**Why join Moor End Academy?**

Here at Moor End Academy we are committed to developing all staff within their roles and creating opportunities for further career progression. The Academy uses Smartclinic as our cover insurer and included in this is a number of wellbeing benefits for all members of staff. These benefits include a stress counselling service, physiotherapy service, cancer support service and a 24 hour GP Helpline. Wellbeing Benefits including annual flu vaccinations, fresh fruit for staff, staff exercise classes and much more

**Successful applicants will be required to undertake a Criminal Record Check via the DBS. The school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.**
