Redcastle Family School successfully opened its Special Resource Base (SRB) for children with autism in 2021, as part of our commitment to meeting the needs of children with SEND across Thetford and the surrounding area.

Our specialist provision comprises three dedicated classroom spaces, a sensory room, and multiple breakout areas. As we continue to grow and develop this exciting provision, we are looking for outstanding professionals to join us on the next stage of our journey.

We are seeking to appoint an experienced SEND practitioner who is passionate about making a difference to children's lives. This is an exciting opportunity to have a significant impact on outcomes for children while developing your own practice through nationally recognised professional development opportunities.

Redcastle Family School serves a thriving community within Thetford. We are a school that places children at the heart of everything we do and takes great pride in the progress our pupils make through a high-quality education delivered via a tailored curriculum that meets individual needs.

The successful candidate will be highly motivated, confident in delivering high-quality education, and eager to contribute new ideas. A strong understanding of curriculum expectations across all age phases is essential.

We are looking for someone who is passionate about teaching and learning and who:

  • Has high expectations for all children.
  • Can effectively assess and interpret individual needs, using both formal assessments and an understanding of how children present in different contexts.
  • Is able to plan and deliver appropriate, personalised learning experiences that meet a child's specific needs.
  • Encourages children to develop across all areas of learning, including social and emotional development, while promoting the school's nurturing ethos.
  • Values teamwork and works collaboratively to overcome challenges.
  • Has the ability to reflect upon and continually develop their classroom practice.
  • Has an excellent understanding of both the Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 curriculum.

In return, we can offer:

  • A supportive and thriving working environment.
  • Extensive mentoring and experienced professional support.
  • A comprehensive programme of training and continuing professional development (CPD).
  • Innovative approaches to managing teacher workload.
  • A Good school, as recognised by Ofsted (November 2022).
  • Excellent standards of behaviour across the school.
  • Enhanced systems to support teachers in meeting the needs of children with SEND.
  • Enthusiastic, happy, and rewarding children who are eager to learn.
  • Forward-thinking approaches to learning, professional development, and school improvement.
  • Opportunities to be innovative, creative, and make a lasting difference.

Visits to the school are very much encouraged. Please contact the school office to arrange prior to the closing date.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
