Outdoor Education Sports Instructor - Barley Lane School

Barley Lane School is a day special school. The school provides education for up to 80 pupils aged 7-16 who benefit from small group and individualised learning. Although we are a small school that teaches to the national curriculum, we supplement this with nurture principles and the Boxall profile approach to develop healthy, happy, confident children who are ready and open to learning.

You will deliver a highly rewarding Outdoor Learning & Sports curriculum to small groups of Barley Lane students. This will include delivering or facilitating these high-quality learning opportunities through a broad range of off-site and on-site activities. This curriculum will be aimed at developing the social, emotional and subject skills of each student, including self-esteem, risk assessment and management, teamwork, interpersonal and leadership potential. This will be achieved through a varied outdoor learning / experiential programme.

Why work for us?

• Our holistic approach to education with a focus on emotional and social development;
• The opportunity to make a positive difference to the lives of children who can be educationally overlooked;
• To work as part of a dedicated and supportive team who enjoy excellent CPD and career development opportunities;
• Training and ongoing professional development opportunities are offered to all staff, as are potential promotion opportunities;
• To experience a different ethos regarding education.
