060 Assistant Headteacher - Inclusion

At Elements Academy, inclusion is not a strand of our work—it is our core purpose. We are a specialist setting where all students have Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) and an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP). We are seeking an exceptional and values-driven leader to join our Senior Leadership Team as Assistant Headteacher - Inclusion, with a clear strategic remit to ensure that every learner receives a highly personalised, ambitious and effective education that enables them to thrive. This is a pivotal role for a leader who understands that inclusion in a specialist setting means going beyond access—it is about precision, expertise, and consistently high-quality adaptive practice that secures meaningful outcomes for every student.

This is an exciting opportunity to join Ethos Academy Trust, where we aim to deliver the very best educational experiences for pupils across the primary and secondary age range. Our academies are welcoming, calm and purposeful and, within a nurturing ethos, our learners are stretched academically, supported pastorally and developed socially and emotionally.
