The School

Nether Edge School is an over-subscribed, two-form entry, multi-cultural primary and nursery school firmly rooted in its community. We have approximately 450 pupils and a dedicated, diverse staff.

We are proud to be a member of Mercia Learning Trust, enjoying the benefits of a successful and expanding multi-academy trust.

Nether Edge Primary is an exceptional school with high expectations of all children and staff. It is a warm, welcoming environment where both pupils and adults feel happy and secure. If you're seeking a school community where pupils are polite, respectful, and leaders are committed to the continuous improvement of the team, we look forward to your application.

The Integrated Resource

Nether Edge Primary are delighted to be opening a groundbreaking integrated resource at the heart of our school, designed to cater to the diverse needs of our students. Backed by unwavering support from parents, governors, and the wider community, this provision is set to address the requirements of some of our most complex children.

In collaboration with a dedicated team of support staff, led by an experienced SENCO and SLT, this resource comprises three distinct indoor spaces and an outdoor area equipped with its own amenities, facilitating a dynamic response to individual needs and curriculum development.

With a primary focus on communication and interaction, particularly social communication, the resource will accommodate 15 children, many of whom rely on pre-verbal strategies for communication. Additionally, it provides vital support for children with intricate sensory needs, offering ongoing continuing professional development (CPD) opportunities for staff.

Working in tandem with both locally provided and externally sourced professionals, this integrated resource embodies our commitment to fostering an inclusive and supportive learning environment for all our students.

The Role

As a teacher within the Integrated Resource, you will play a pivotal role in shaping its development and aligning efforts with the school's vision and values.

Working closely with parents and colleagues, you will ensure that every child receives the tailored education they require and deserve. Within the broader educational Trust, your involvement extends to curriculum development across multiple schools, fostering a supportive and innovative environment focused on meeting the diverse needs of children with SEND.

This commitment is underpinned by a strong sense of community, with a priority placed on staff well-being and work-life balance. Together, you create a unique and sector-leading educational experience, driven by a shared dedication to excellence.


The Candidate

The right candidate will have resilience, flexibility, and a commitment to excellence. They will have a real passion for working with children who require a bespoke offer, recognising small steps of progress and celebrating all achievements. They will support children to work towards becoming independent adults and will be relentless in supporting children to make the small steps of progress that the children need on their individual developmental journeys. They will work in partnership with parents and professionals and will be supported in the role by a committed SENCO, Headteacher and the wider Trust.

This is a rare and exciting opportunity. Visits to the school are strongly recommended before applying for the role.
