Anglian Learning is a high-performing multi-academy trust responsible for 22 schools in West Suffolk, Cambridgeshire, and Essex, educating over 11,000 pupils and employing more than 1600 staff.

Our vision is for dynamic, empowered learners who thrive and lead in their communities: locally, nationally, and globally. Our schools are at the heart of their communities and as well as providing a broad, rich, and vibrant curriculum to pupils they also provide sporting, community education and other facilities and opportunities to their local community.

This is a unique opportunity for a SENCo to further develop SEND provision at Clare Community Primary School, which will have reached capacity and is now over-subscribed.

You will be highly motivated to achieve the best possible outcomes for all our students, utilising the breadth of physical and web-based resources available within different subject areas to support learning. Being able to confidently use ICT for record keeping and the ability to teach Literacy and Numeracy would be an advantage. This post is ideal for a committed team member who is determined to make a significant contribution to the development of individuals with learning needs across the school.

Applicants must have Qualified Teacher Status and either hold the National Award for SEND Co-ordination, be currently working towards the award or be exempt due to their previous SENDCo experience.

We are a positive, outward-looking primary school at the heart of our local community, looking forward to welcoming you join us on our journey as we continue to establish a strong emphasis on the teaching and learning of core skills in the context of a creative and dynamic curriculum.

We can offer you a supportive and caring staff, well-behaved and enthusiastic pupils, and a school that is both forward-thinking and self-reflective.
