Learning Coach-Nurture Provision

Welcome Everything we do across our family of eight schools in our Trust is focused on our mission to deliver a high-quality and inclusive education for our pupils. At Teignmouth Community School we are driven by our belief that we are all capable of being a slightly better version of ourselves tomorrow than we are today. This is underpinned by the values that, we believe, will ensure that we are all always working to be the best version of ourselves. By working hard and never giving up we remain open to limitless opportunities for progress. We firmly believe that you have not failed until you stop trying. As a community we have a responsibility to be kind and care for each other. We don’t need to agree with everyone, we don’t even need to understand everyone but there is absolutely nothing, other than our own fear, that stops us from accepting everyone. And only by joining in can we develop and grow. Our characters are like muscles: if we don’t exercise them, if we never push ourselves beyond that which is comfortable then we will never grow. Our unwavering commitment at Teignmouth Community School is to challenge and support every member of our community to be the best version of themselves. If this sounds like the kind of community you would like to belong to then please apply.

We are launching an exciting and innovative Nurture Hub designed to support pupils with cognition and learning needs as they transition from primary to secondary school. This is a unique opportunity to be at the heart of a forward-thinking, inclusive provision that puts relationships, consistency and ambition at the centre of learning. Working with a small cohort alongside a Primary Teacher, you will support pupils as they transition from Year 6 to Year 7. This role is central to delivering a consistent, relational and inclusive provision that reduces anxiety, builds confidence and enables pupils to successfully access and reintegrate into mainstream secondary education. Welcome from the SENCo We are excited to take the first steps to develop our own innovative in-house provision. Our aim is to provide a structured, inclusive pathway, to reduce anxiety associated with transition, to maintain continuity whilst also delivering an ambitious and accessible curriculum. Our provision will be centred on strong relationships, consistent and predictable routines and reduced cognitive load, with learning primarily delivered by a primary specialist. Pupils will also access a wider curriculum with appropriate support, for example in art and technology, while gradually reintegrating into mainstream learning environments. If you would like to be part of this journey as we establish our Nurture Hub, helping pupils by providing a secure foundation for learning, promoting conf
