Job Description
Required for September 2025 if possible and will consider a January 2026 start. One Year Fixed Term contract with a possible extension to two years depending on funding and pupils on roll
We have a fantastic opportunity for a teacher who is an excellent early years' practitioner and is passionate about supporting children with Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities at Kintore Way Nursery School.
Kintore Way has a long and established tradition of successfully supporting children with additional needs. From September 2025 to July 2027, we are running a pilot for a specially gathered SEN/D provision. We really want to evidence the impact that high quality early intervention has for children aged 3-4 with additional needs.
You will lead a highly skilled and dedicated team of support staff to deliver the curriculum to a smaller group of children with SEN/D. You will contribute to whole school development and accurately observe, assess and review the progress of the children, feeding into the EHC needs' assessment process. The class is fully resourced and set within our mainstream nursery with the opportunity for children to spend time in both spaces. There is also a wonderful sensory room that the children have daily access to.
Additional support will be provided via commissioned Speech Therapy and Occupational Therapy. You will liaise directly with the therapists to deliver children's targets and identify and support training opportunities for your staff team and parents and carers. You will work within a school in which everyone is dedicated to supporting all children, working in an inspirational way to give them the very best start.
We would like to appoint a candidate who is experienced in teaching in early years and SEN/D and can deliver a range of evidence based interventions.
Please do call the school if you want to arrange a visit and/or discuss the post. Secondments will be considered.
