Strive for Education (Strive) is an Independent Specialist School that provide education for those who do not attend mainstream school on a full-time basis or who have a specialist provision named in their EHCP. Strive is looking to employ a tutor to lead the delivery of the multi-trade construction curriculum. Strive seeks applications from applicants with integrity, imagination and energy for this exciting role.
At Strive's last Ofsted inspection it was rated Good with Outstanding within the Behaviour and Attitudes grading see here for our Ofsted report

The construction curriculum will be based at the Construction Centre in Pannal. Monday-Wednesday would be working with up to 10 students with up to 3 staff. The curriculum for this group is focused on trades and multi-skills subjects such as building, bricklaying, joinery, plumbing, flooring, roofing and possibly electrics. The successful applicant would plan and deliver the curriculum with additional support from the support staff members. Thursday and Friday would involve working with our core class groups to complete short sessions of practical activities at the workshop. These classes are 6 students with 2 staff.
All sessions are designed to develop key skills in the particular practical areas in addition to meeting personal objectives outlined in their EHCP. Experience in working with young people with ASC/SEMH would be beneficial.
The successful applicant will have a large input into the course set-up, structure, delivery, and assessment methods, the successful applicant will be able to ‘shape’ the course to suit their own experience, skills and strengths. Experience in delivering and assessing in a range of the following areas would be desirable:
Bricklaying, woodwork and joinery, plumbing, roofing, flooring, plastering, electrical work, painting and decorating.
We would not expect the applicant to be skilled and/or qualified in all of these trades. The person appointed will demonstrate enthusiasm and motivation, be a “hands on” person who can encourage young people to engage in this project and develop valuable skills to help them progress into employment in the construction sectors and/or into further training.
This will be a challenging but rewarding environment, working with young people who may struggle to regulate their emotions at times. Students will at times present challenging behaviours and staff must have the confidence and emotional resilience to deal with this. Strive offers a nurturing environment, small class sizes and high staff to student ratios in order to best support out students and staff.


Teaching & Learning

The lead tutor must have a sound understanding of the principles behind effective teaching and learning. Sessions must be planned to ensure that learning is:
  • Scaffolded
  • Progressive
  • Differentiated
  • Challenging
  • Engaging
  • Attainable
  • Assessed appropriately
  • Varied
Student Needs
All students will have some form of SEND needs. Experience in working with young people with ASD/SEMH would be beneficial. Most students will either be categorised as Social Emotional & Mental Health (SEMH) or Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Most need extra support to access their work and help and guidance to manage emotions is often needed. Some students experience difficulties that regularly interfere with their social and learning development and have been directed to access specialist provision to receive this support.
Key Responsibilities
Strive operates in a demanding and often changing environment. Members of staff must be flexible, adaptable and willing to face up to changing circumstances and new opportunities.
For further responsibilities see the attached Job Information pack.
Support for Students:
  • Establish good relationships with students, acting as a role model and being aware of and responding appropriately to individual needs
  • Attend to students’ personal needs including social, health, physical, hygiene, first aid and welfare matters
  • Supervise and support students ensuring their safety and access to learning
  • Use specialist knowledge and experience to support students to learn in line with their individual learning plans or targets
  • Provide feedback to students in relation to progress, achievement, behaviour and attendance
  • Encourage students to interact and work cooperatively and employ strategies to recognise and reward achievement of self-reliance
  • Develop 1:1 mentoring relationships with students and provide appropriate support at times of crisis
Responsible to: Headteacher
All staff, regardless of their position, are expected to undertake Team Teach training and work within "good practice" guidelines using a range of positive handling and de-escalation strategies, gradual and graded, involved in holding, guiding and escorting safely, from least intrusive to more restrictive holds.
As part of your wider duties and responsibilities you will be required to promote and actively support the school’s responsibilities towards safeguarding. Safeguarding is about keeping people safe and protecting people from harm, neglect, abuse and injury. It is about creating safe places, being vigilant and doing something about any concerns you might have. It isn’t just about the very old and the very young, it is about everyone who may be vulnerable.
The post holder must be willing to undertake an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check. Please note that a conviction may not exclude candidates from appointment but will be considered as part of our safer recruitment process.


References

For all roles we require a minimum of two references. References provided must cover the last 3 years. We will need to request all references from where you have worked with either Children or Vulnerable Adults. Please be advised that references will be requested prior to interview for all roles.
Disclosure
Strive for Education is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. Recruitment is carried out following safer recruitment principles. All applicants must be willing to undergo safeguarding screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers and disclosures with the relevant body at an enhanced level. All staff are required to undertake an Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check. Strive is an equal opportunities employer.
How to apply
Applicants are asked to submit their completed application forms.
