Are you adept at managing supportive learning environments for students who face significant barriers to engagement? Join us as a Bridge Coordinator, where you will serve as the Gatekeeper and manager of the Bridge provision. This role is integral to the Deep Support team, focusing on re-engaging vulnerable students by providing tailored resources, developing study and social skills, and managing strategic behavioural interventions.

Key administrative duties include assisting the Inclusion Co-ordinator with special needs procedures and producing individual reduced timetables for students. You will administer and assess routine tests, invigilate exams, and act as a crucial point of contact for vulnerable students, the EWO, and parents. Furthermore, you will manage initiatives like the 'Behaviour for Learning' programme and SEN Raising Boys' Achievement.
