Cardrew Court School is an Independent SEMH special school in Redruth, Cornwall. We are looking for excellent SEN teachers, who want to focus their teaching in a fully inclusive, therapeutic environment, tailored to meet individual needs.
Our school is growing, therefore we are looking for a dynamic, adaptable practitioners, who want to make a difference to the lives and outcomes of pupils with SEMH needs.
Pupils attending the school will have an Education Health and Care Plan (EHCP) outlining their Special Educational Needs – EHCP’s of commissioned places will include needs such as high anxiety, social and emotional mental health needs and autism. Many of these pupils will have found life in a mainstream school very challenging and will have experience of anxiety-based school refusal and/or of short-term placements in a range of alternative provisions.
Cardrew Court School provides these pupils with a permanent placement in a school that is able to personalise the curriculum and wider support offer to ensure that their specific special educational needs (education, health and care) are understood and met, enabling them to learn, apply and develop specific strategies to facilitate them in participating in learning and preparing for life beyond school.
Cardrew Court School offers a pupil centred curriculum that meets pupils at their stage and not simply their age. Curriculum overviews will apply the National Curriculum where at all possible, using this as an aspirational baseline, whilst also offering spiral curriculum pathways that allow for individual, small step success the moment a pupil starts at the school.
Cardrew Court School provides personalised accreditation pathways supporting pupils who may have spiky learning profiles to make academic progress as well as benefit from the therapeutically informed programmes.Vision Our vision is for a world where every single young person has access to the best education they need – delivered in the best possible environment – so they can thrive, succeed, and flourish, no matter what circumstances they face.
We strive for all of our pupils to be successful learners who reach their potential in all they do; confident learners, who develop resilience and show respect to others, via kindness. Learners who become responsible citizens, well-prepared for life and work via a range of independence skills, that enable them health and happiness in their future lives.
Ethos
At Cardrew Court School we believe that education should take place in a fully inclusive environment that provides equitable opportunities for all. We believe that learning is the process by which pupils gradually acquire knowledge, concepts, skills, and attitudes to enable them to make greater sense of the world. Teaching and learning is central to our work as educators, and it stems from the school’s vision statement based on the principles that every pupil deserves and has the right to:
Belong – We’re striving to provide a safe, positive learning environment where everyone feels they belong. Through this sense of belonging, we want to foster every member of our community to build kind and respectful relationships. Honesty, transparency, and authenticity are what all our work is built on. Every single voice matters. Everyone can have ideas, express views, and be heard.
Believe – We prepare young people for the next step, whatever that step may be, through innovation, excitement, and opportunity. Our commitment to them is to give them the education and skills they need to lead rich, active, and fulfilling lives beyond school all while being in a space where they feel safe, supported, and happy.
Achieve – Together we support every learner to ensure they reach their unique potential. This includes supporting pupils to achieve the accreditations for the next steps they have chosen on their journey to adulthood. We aim to support pupils to identify what makes them happy and equip them with the knowledge and skills to lead an independent life in the future. We make SEN exciting. We’re the go-getters and the trend‑setters. We’re not bound by convention and infuse our energy and passion through everything we do. We believe in setting new standards and consistently raising them through the quality of our work and approach.We challenge conventions, we pioneer excellence, and we work tirelessly to create better tomorrows for our young people and their families.
