SENDCo - January 2025

Chiswick School is a high performing school in West London of nearly 1600 students (including a thriving and very successful 6th Form).

The school is heavily oversubscribed and remains the first choice school for many parents in Hounslow. Shortlisted for the TES School of the Year Award in 2022 and 2023 and in 2023 winner of the TES Best Arts Provision category.

OFSTED rated the school as good with outstanding features in February 2020.

We are looking to appoint an additional SENDCo to join an experienced and well resourced department. You will be working with a highly skilled SENDCo (also an AHT), Deputy SENDCO (who is also a fully qualified SENDCo), a fantastic team of Teaching Assistants and HLTAs as well as internal and external SEND professionals. You will have a very light teaching loading as we understand the demands of this vital role. There is also the possibility of some remote working from home when completing paperwork or attending virtual meetings.

We are a values driven organisation and very ambitious for all our students regardless of background, prior attainment or needs. We are a warm, caring and inclusive school with highest expectations of all our learners and where everyone works together to support them to reach their potential.

If you wish to discuss this further or would like to come and look at the school, please contact the Director of HR, Andrea Ramsay on or or email ara@chiswickschool.org. Applications will only be accepted through the TES application portal.

Closing date: 3 October 2024 but please note interviews will be held throughout the application process and the school reserves the right to make an early appointment should there be an exceptional candidate.
