ABOUT THIS OPPORTUNITYWe are looking to appoint a new secondary SEND Consultant to our central team of subject specialists. We want to hear from experienced teachers who have gained experience in a middle leadership role, and who have a track record of raising achievement within a department. The successful applicant will join an established team of specialists, working to further raise standards and further drive improvement across the Harris Federation. The role of SEND Consultant is an exciting post providing enormous scope for a talented and creative practitioner to work collaboratively across a group of academies. This is a predominantly school‑based role, with the majority of work focused on supporting our secondary academies across Essex. You will also provide support to London academies when required. Although we aim to schedule work locally, candidates must be able to commute regularly to Essex for this role and be willing to travel across the trust when necessary. The Harris Federation central office is located near East and West Croydon stations, which is where occasional meetings will be held that you will be required to attend. Flexibility and a willingness to travel are essential.
