Job Description

A great opportunity has arisen for a teacher to gain invaluable experience in working with children with Social Emotional Mental Health Needs in an innovative provision named GROW.

Are you ready for an exciting new challenge based at Braiswick Primary School supporting the needs of children in the Colchester area? If you have the skills and values of working in such a provision then this may be for you.

This post is offered initally on a fixed term basis until August 2023 in line with the current Essex Local Authority funding agreement.

GROW is an alternative education provision for a small number of children lasting for a maximum of two terms for pupils in KS1 and 2 who are not learning and/or progressing in their current school because of the barriers caused by behaviour, emotional needs or social difficulties. GROW provides each child with a curriculum planned for their individual needs. It will be monitored and reviewed carefully. Links to the referring school will continue throughout the placement. Children will work within the designated GROW space and within an identified mainstream class in the school leading to full reintegration back to their home school.

In the first instance, to get further information regarding the job description and details you can contact:

Lorraine Laudrum - Headteacher Braiswick Primary School (head@braiswickprimary.org.uk)

Visits to the provision are encouraged. Please contact Trudie Spiller - Business Manager Learning Pathways Academy Trust (tspiller@braiswickprimary.org.uk) to arrange.
