Full Job Description

Our children are supported by a multi-disciplinary team to access a personalised curriculum that improves their quality of life, helps them achieve individual goals and meets our vision to 'make the ordinary possible'.

We are committed to providing high-quality, specialist teaching, learning, and support to improve the life chances of those we work with - we advocate that the views and choices of children and young people should shape our services. We know that effective education has the power to transform their lives, help them reach their potential, and raise expectations for their future.

We recognise the vital role that parents and carers play in supporting young people to make decisions about their future lives and are therefore committed to ensuring that we work closely with autistic young people and their families.

About the role

You will join the Governing Body and work closely with the current Chair to gain insight and experience. You will ensure a smooth transition of leadership once the current Chair formally hands over responsibility later this year, at which point the Designate will assume the full duties and responsibilities of the Chair role.

The new Vice Chair/Chair Designate will guide our strategic direction, ensuring the Governing Body contributes effectively to our mission and meets all educational responsibilities in line with Ambitious about Autism's strategy.

You will play a key role in Ambitious about Autism's Education and Care Committee, influencing decisions that ultimately shape the future of TreeHouse School. While financial and property management falls outside the Governing Body's remit, you will be instrumental in navigating educational, regulatory, and sector challenges.

You will work closely with governors, Ambitious about Autism's Education and Care Committee, our current Chair of the Governing body, our Head of School and Executive Head, providing leadership during a time of significant growth, development, change and opportunity.

We are looking for an experienced leader committed to supporting autistic young people. Our new Vice Chair/Chair Designate will have experience of being on a Governing Body or Trustee Board.

This voluntary role offers a rewarding opportunity to make a lasting difference in the lives of autistic young people, and we are looking for someone who is inclusive and who engages effectively and sensitively.

Stand with autistic children and young people. Join TreeHouse School as Vice Chair/Chair Designate and play a pivotal role in shaping the lives of autistic young people., TreeHouse School was founded in 1997 by a group of parents of autistic children. It is an Ofsted-rated 'Outstanding', non-maintained special school for 104 autistic children and young people aged 4 to 19 years who come from approximately 22 local authorities.
