Join the highly respected team of Personal Learning Coordinators at National Star on the outskirts of Cheltenham. We have a full-time parental leave cover position within our team for a period of up to 12 months.

Multi-disciplinary work will be critical in your role so that you can ensure students maximise their learning, boosting their independence and wellbeing to prepare them for life after college.

It will be your job co-ordinate and be responsible for high quality and stimulating learning programmes for students with a range of physical and learning disabilities working towards personalised EHCP outcomes and from pre-entry to level 1 accreditation, with a focus on achievable and realistic learning targets across the curriculum and recognising progress through the RARPA framework.

As a qualified teacher, or already working towards a level 5 teaching qualification, your previous teaching experience will ideally be in a Special Education Needs (SEN) environment working with people with complex learning difficulties and disabilities such as ASC and/ or profound and multiple learning difficulties or severe learning difficulties.

It also goes without saying that you will be a first-class communicator, who is creative, proactive and forward-thinking with excellent organisational skills.
