We strongly believe in developing our own talent and growing our teachers into successful middle and senior leaders.

**Resilience** We support some of the most vulnerable children in society who have varying degrees of emotional behavioural difficulties, autism, ADHD and associated difficulties so there will be times where your resilience is challenged.
**Communication** Communicating with our young people is vital to understand their needs. Good teamwork and communication plays a key part in ensuring important information is relayed to other staff.
**Organisation** You will have experience of organising, planning and teaching well-structured lessons tailored to the needs of the pupils as well as monitoring each students learning needs, adapting teaching to respond to the strengths and needs of each pupil.
**Caring** Our young people require the best care we can offer. If you are a naturally caring and compassionate person, this is the role for you.
**Attentive** No two tasks will be the same so being attentive to understand the needs of the young people we support is vital
