Our Vision and Ethos for The Hawthorns

We have established a school which embodies the ethos, vision and values of the SEAX Trust and the other schools in the Trust (Thriftwood School & College, Langham Oaks School, Grove House School and Kingswode Hoe School).

The Hawthorns' mission:

Our mission is to provide a personalised and imaginative curriculum designed to develop the skills, knowledge and understanding to build the basis for a purposeful and fulfilling adult life for young people with autism. Through outstanding teaching and secure relationships, pupils will gain the confidence to communicate effectively, acquire appropriate accreditation for next steps forward, learn core skills for life, develop healthy relationships, self-advocate, contribute to their community and keep themselves safe.
All appointments are subject to safer recruitment requirements to ensure the safeguarding of children and young people. All positions will involve appropriate checks and clearances.

Documents

Please be aware that some uploaded documents may require special software such as Microsoft Word or Adobe Acrobat Reader to view.

We have already established a therapeutic, dedicated, tight-knit and supportive team who prioritise the needs of the pupils through an evolving curriculum with the development of social communication at its core. We are particularly looking for a HLTA with experience and specialism with the earliest years of learning. This could be experience from an EYFS setting or within a special school working with a range of early learning experiences. We want someone to support those pupils who are still developing these earliest skills across the age range. Could this be you? Please do phone us to discuss further.

This is a unique opportunity to join us in providing a holistic education and environment for pupils with autism, appropriate for their specific needs.

Pupils will be supported to achieve a range of individual, personal and academic goals by a team of teaching, support and therapy staff. We are committed to developing pupil achievement through the aims of personal growth, participation and preparation for adulthood.

·Are you a thoughtful, compassionate and reflective practitioner who is a team player?

·Do you share our ethos of kindness, curiosity, integrity and participation?

·Can you support a range of children with autism and associated learning issues at a complex level?

·Can you help manage and organise a team of skilled staff?

·Do you have bags of energy who thinks, watches, listens but also takes initiative?

·Do you have an interest in, or experience of, working or living with young people with autism?

We are looking for resilient and collaborative team members to join our school community who work hard, have a desire to learn, are adaptable and have a 'can do' attitude. Are you someone who embraces a challenge, has a sense of humour and can laugh at the daily absurdities in a school in development?

Come and see us and think about helping us nurture the potential of young people with autism. We can offer you professional fulfilment, development, care and attention to wellbeing and a lot of fun.

The Hawthorns is one of a community of Special Schools, supported by the well-established and highly regarded SEAX Trust. The Trust respects and trusts each school to evolve its unique identity, whilst providing layers of support and networking at all professional levels. Together, in close partnership with Essex Local Authority, The Hawthorns School could not be in a better position to continue fulfilling its aims of personal growth, participation and preparation. Do consider joining us in achieving our goal., The Hawthorns School is a brand new school for autistic young people in Chelmsford and is the fifth school in the SEAX Trust. The Hawthorns School opened in temporary accommodation in January 2023, and will move into a brand new school building on the old St Peter's School site, in January 2025.
