Millside School is our special school provision for up to 75 young people with a range of social, emotional and mental health difficulties. In Key Stage 3 we operate a Nurture Group approach where each class is taught by the same teacher for all core subjects in order to delay full transition and create a more nurturing environment.  Specialist subject teaching, such as sport, DT and ICT is increased over time, so by year 9 pupils are able to fully access subject specific teaching.

You will be an energetic, highly resilient and adaptable individual with excellent creativity, who can ensure challenges are met and problems are solved.

• Working with the Head of Millside School and the Board of Trustees, you will provide vision and strategic leadership which inspires and motivates young people, staff and all other members of the College community.
• You will deliver your subjects to ensure that all young people you teach make at least expected progress towards becoming independent learners.
