Deputy Head
East London
This is an inspiring, therapeutic service that works across London. They have a no exclusion policy and support the hardest to reach, high risk and most vulnerable young people. They support young people who may have been out of formal education for a significant amount of time and are unable at this time to cope with learning in a classroom.
These young people have an SEMH and/or ASC diagnosis, alongside complex additional needs. They may be at considerable risk of exploitation or been exposed to extreme violence and abuse in their homes.
This service has a high success rate in that young people are eventually are back in full time education or employment, and on top of that thriving, able to regulate their emotions and begin to process their trauma. An example of this is a young person with previous low school attendance, multiple exclusions, PTSD, and extremely aggressive behaviour. After being assigned a specialist mentor and working together, this young person has now transitioned to a specialist school, has a 93% attendance record, is part of restorative groups helping him to process his trauma and is thriving with a bespoke curriculum.
They are looking for a dynamic and creative Deputy Head to support SLT.
