The successful candidate will provide operational leadership and coordination of SEND provision across the school, acting as a key point of contact for pupils, parents, staff and external agencies. To also support the effective implementation of statutory SEND processes, coordinate the work of Learning Support Team and ensure continuity of SEND provision during periods when the SENDCo is not on site. The postholder will also play a significant role in maintaining day to day SEND operations and responding to emerging issues whilst escalating statutory and strategic matters appropriately.
We have a passion for excellence demonstrated by a broad curriculum and high-quality leadership. We work hard to create collaboration across the Trust, and the Central Team reside in one of our schools, to remain grounded in school life. We have a strong track record of governance and health and safety, and our schools and Trust enjoy a healthy and stable financial position; we look to the future with anticipation of further growth and to support those schools already in our family by working together and adding value.
Thank you for your interest in John Taylor MAT – we hope the information here will outline what it means to work with us.
The Trust was founded in 2014, in John Taylor High School – an outstanding secondary school in Barton-Under-Needwood, and the first in Staffordshire to convert to become an Academy. We have grown steadily over time and currently serve 13 infant/primary schools, and 6 secondary schools.
In addition, the Staffordshire Research School and John Taylor Teaching School Hub are also key parts of our Trust, having gained a reputation for delivering outstanding professional development and support for teachers across a wide ranging offer.
The mission for the Trust is “We believe in the power of education to improve lives – and the world.” We are driven to ensure our communities can realise their true potential through learning. This is our mission. We provide experiences, resources, structures, and systems to enable all to engage, all to progress, all to achieve.
