HLTA

The Sheffield Inclusion Centre is on the up! We have just received a good rating from Ofsted https://files.ofsted.gov.uk/v1/file/50238878 which is the result of a lot of hard work by staff and pupils. Our pupils, despite being permanently excluded, are our strength and it is a pleasure to work with them and their families to support learning. Please come and visit us to see for yourself our amazing children and staff.

We are looking to appoint a Higher Level Teaching Assistant with the flexibility to work across all phases of the Centre if required and we would welcome applicants from all educational sectors: primary, secondary, specialist or PRU/alternative provisions.  This position presents a genuine opportunity for a HLTA with a proven track record in a particular phase to expand their skills and experience across wider fields of education. If you are considering a move from mainstream education we offer a full professional development package to further develop skills, for example in enhanced behaviour management techniques through Team Teach.

If you feel that you have the dedication, resilience and understanding of the needs of our students we would welcome your application.

We are looking for a HLTA who can:  
•    Teach English, Maths or Science to small groups
•    Help deliver a curriculum with a strong focus on pupil engagement and creativity.
•    Show dedication and patience in working with pupils with behavioural, emotional and social difficulties
•    Rise to the physical and emotional challenges of teaching students who are disaffected with education
•    Help our students make progress in all subjects
•    Show commitment to understanding and improving the life circumstances of all our pupils
•    Be an excellent team player
•    Deliver outstanding provision
•    Have high aspirations for all of our pupils

Experience working with young people with emotional, social and behavioral difficulties is an advantage but by no means essential as full training will be given.

The successful candidate will entirely share our commitment and dedication to our young people. No matter what behaviors and challenges are faced day to day, you will remain resilient and ambitious for our students and will take every opportunity to celebrate success. The education and support we provide is personalized, dynamic and ever-changing. You will have excellent communication and interpersonal skills and be able to both lead and participate in effective teams.

Applications packs are available from the school website www.inclusion.sheffield.sch.uk or www.sheffield.gov.uk

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare and safety of children and vulnerable adults and expect all staff to share this commitment.  All successful candidates will be required to complete an Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service Check.

We value our diverse workforce and aim to work together to make the most of our differences. We welcome applications from everyone.  Under the Disability Confident Scheme, disabled applicants, who meet the essential criteria of this job, are guaranteed an interview.
