About Us

Amplify Education is a dynamic multi-academy trust of 22 schools in Bristol, South Gloucestershire and North Somerset. A bold voice for Bristol, we are committed to building belief  in every young person, expand opportunities, nurture potential and strengthen citizenship. If you’re looking for a Trust that is ambitious, reflective and collaborative, Amplify Education could be the perfect place for you.

We invite you to join our team at Stoke Park Primary School. Our vision statement ‘Be kind, be proud, strive for success’ underpins everything we do. We are proud of our enthusiastic children and dedicated staff team, who make Stoke Park a friendly and exciting place to be. At the heart of a diverse and ever-changing community, Stoke Park Primary is a wonderful place to work.

The Opportunity

We are looking for an inspirational SENDCO to join our talented leadership and teaching team.

This is a part time role, 3 days per week, plus INSET days. (Note: Wednesday and Friday are currently required to fit with weekly strategic events in school).  The contract is permanent, starting on the 4th January 2027.

If you join us, a typical week in this role will see you engaging with the whole school community as an active member of the senior leadership team. Advocating for our SEND pupils, and leading on best practice, you will play a central role in ensuring that every SEND child receives the targeted support and interventions they need to reach their full potential.

You are likely to have a strong background in SEND provision, as well as leadership experience,  and to enjoy forming positive relationships, and building trust, with an array of stakeholders.  You will be solutions focussed and proactive in your approach, and have an ability to inspire learners and colleagues alike. You will have Qualified Teacher Status (QTS).
