Beacon is a primary school and nursery for children aged 3 to 11 years old with an Area Resource Base for pupils from 4 years old. We hope that children will join us from the age of 3, when they can enjoy our fantastic outdoor Nursery, and then thrive on the provision in each year group up to Year 6. It is at the end of Year 6 that we say goodbye to our confident, well-rounded young people, as they move on to secondary school equipped with skills which will take them successfully forward into the next stage of their education and indeed, will take them on into their longer‑term futures. We have three key values at Beacon Academy: Be Brilliant, Be Brave, Believe. These values work in partnership with our Trust Core Shared Values and our Trust Philosophy of ‘work hard, be honest & help others’. Our three school key values underpin everything we do. We want every child and every member of our community to hold these values close at all times. These values will, we are sure, enable every child and member of our school community to "Shine Brightly".

We seek an inspiring ARB Class Teacher who has a passion for special educational needs to join the ARB team at Beacon Academy which caters for primary age children with challenging and complex learning needs. Our ARB is an integral part of our school.

The successful applicant will be jointly responsible for leading and teaching and learning within the ARB on a daily basis, as well as managing and developing our skilled support team. Our ideal candidate is a teacher experienced in teaching children with complex learning needs, who can build positive and warm relationships to make a difference to some of our most vulnerable children, working alongside our highly experienced ARB manager.

As well as offering great schools to work in, wonderful children to work with, and fantastic colleagues to work alongside, our Trust is committed to providing colleagues with other benefits that make your employment with Kernow Learning the best it can be. We offer:

• A competitive salary and membership of Teachers Pension Scheme
• A real commitment to wellbeing, including access to 24/7 wellbeing services and employee assistance programme
• Access to discounts with national and local retailers and service providers
• A range of CPD and training opportunities, both internally and externally, learning from local and national speakers and specialists to support your professional growth
• The support and skills of our networks of colleagues both within our schools and our Shared Services teams.

Kernow Learning is committed to safeguarding the welfare of children and follows the Safer Recruitment process. The successful candidate will be expected to share this commitment and will be required to undertake checks including an enhanced disclosure through the DBS process, as well as prohibition, S128, and Social Media/online presence checks.

We are an equal opportunities employer and welcome applications from all.

Unfortunately, Kernow Learning is not a sponsoring organisation for overseas candidates. This means that the successful candidate will need to possess the right to work in the UK or be able to secure the right to work in the UK independently.
