Who we are
‘Through God all things are possible’ (Matthew 19:26)
Morland is a vibrant primary school located in the heart of our community. We have embarked on an exciting new chapter that is helping us live our biblical vision. In September we were thrilled to open a specialist SEND unit within our existing building. As pupil numbers grow we are looking for passionate educators to help us create an environment where our children can truly thrive.
Building strong relationships with our children is at the heart of everything we do. The specialist unit benefits from small pupil numbers and a high staff-to-child ratio, we offer a nurturing and supportive space that enables our children to grow. Our team is made up of highly skilled and dedicated professionals who collaborate with parents, multi-agency teams and key workers to support our children in a holistic way. Together, we work with children who face a wide range of challenges, helping them to overcome barriers and achieve their full potential.
We believe in a developmental and sequential approach to teaching, one that builds on prior learning and sets high expectations for progress. At Morland, we understand that our children come from diverse backgrounds and many of them have unique Communication and Interaction needs, but one thing is certain – every child deserves to have the opportunity to shine.
We take a triangulated approach that places the child at the centre of decision-making. By working closely with education and therapy professionals, parents, carers, and the local authority, we ensure that every child’s voice is heard, and that we all work together to secure outstanding outcomes.
The role

We’re looking for someone special, a TA who can, work with the class teacher and HLTA to manage complex and sometimes challenging behaviours with care, understanding and patience. You will need to be adaptable, with the right communication skills, consistency and flexibility to meet the needs of each child in your care. Above all, we’re looking for someone who approaches every child with a non-judgemental mindset and is passionate about making a difference.
