We are seeking to appoint inclusion advisers to join our highly experienced inclusion service. Colleagues will work alongside schools across Stockport to support them to deliver a highly inclusive offer to children and young people across the borough.
About You
Candidates should have qualified teacher status (QTS) and a proven track record of working successfully with children with a range of needs including those with SEND, to ensure that they receive a high quality education and achieve positive outcomes.
You will be working with a group of schools to support them as they continue to refine their inclusive offer for children across the borough. You will help them to remove barriers so that children and young people can thrive and have every opportunity to succeed. You will also use your expertise to support wider systems and services within the LA to help Stockport fulfill the ambition that all children and young people experience high quality educational provision that meets their needs.
