£32,994 - £41,412 (DOE)

We are looking for an imaginative, fun-loving and resilient teacher, with experience in supporting learners with additional support needs, to join our multidisciplinary team. This is an exciting opportunity to be part of a creative team that is remodelling integrated learning, care and therapy for children and young people affected by neurological conditions.

The Centre includes an independent school for children and young people with profound and multiple learning disabilities and is one of the Scottish Government’s seven Grant Aided Special Schools. Education provision includes early learning and childcare, primary and secondary provision including provision for senior phase. The Centre also provides a range of learning and therapeutic services that support families and practitioners throughout Scotland.

The children and young people attending the school and nursery experience complex health and learning needs while families supported through wider Centre services are affected by a broad range of disabilities impacting motor function and learning. The school is highly resourced in terms of specialist staff, technology, outdoor spaces and equipment to facilitate teaching and learning. Our aim is simple; to support children, young people, and their families to attain and maintain the highest level of holistic wellbeing possible.

Multidisciplinary teams around the child work collaboratively alongside parents maximising the benefit from the Centre and community resources to give children and young people exceptional experiences to achieve ambitious outcomes. You will have an opportunity to work across the range of Centre services with children of all ages from pre-nursery through to 18 years.

Our ethos is to get it right for every child, helping children and young people gain the knowledge, skills and attributes needed for life in the 21st century.
