An amazing opportunity to be part of our Special, Special School!

 

Red Kite Special Academy is a special school situated in Corby for children and young people aged between 4 and 18. All pupils have an Education, Health and Care Plan. The school caters for pupils with a wide range of complex needs and most pupils have a combination of special educational needs.

We are looking for a very special individual to come and join our Red Kite Family. We are part of the Kingsley Learning Foundation where families are at the heart of everything we do. Our mission statement ‘Helping people living in extraordinary circumstances to lead ordinary lives’ can be felt across our school. 

We are looking for that special person who will be a champion and an advocate for our pupils and ensure that they reach their true potential. We need a solution focused practitioner, who will inspire and motivate our amazing pupils and go above and beyond to support our families. 

We are looking for a passionate teacher that understands child development, has a good understanding of the approach used in the early years and is creative in their approach to learning. 

We really value our team and can offer you ongoing training and support, on site parking with EVC Chargers, Wellbeing Support Programme, Wellness Day, staff appreciation events, Local Authority Pension Scheme, subsidised freshly cooked meals.
