The cluster of homes in Stockton Borough Council places a strong emphasis on family reunification and supporting young people in their journey toward foster care, with a deep commitment to trauma-informed care at its core. We understand that children entering our homes often come from backgrounds of significant adversity, and our approach is rooted in creating a stable, nurturing environment that prioritises healing and emotional safety. By working closely with families, we create individualised care plans that address the unique needs of each child, aiming to rebuild and strengthen family bonds wherever possible. Our team of care workers, supported by dedicated therapeutic staff, work collaboratively with external professionals to facilitate this reunification process, ensuring that parents or guardians are supported and equipped to provide a secure and loving home environment. In cases where reunification is not immediately possible, we carefully prepare young people for foster care, working at their pace to develop trust, resilience, and the skills needed to transition successfully into a family setting. Throughout this process, we maintain a consistent focus on the child’s emotional well-being, ensuring that they feel supported, heard, and respected as they navigate these significant changes in their lives.

If this sounds like you, then Stockton Borough Council wants to hear from you! We are looking for an experienced and motivated Registered Cluster Manager to lead and inspire a dedicated team across our cluster of up to three children’s homes. This is an exciting opportunity to shape the future of residential care in Stockton-on-Tees and contribute to life-changing outcomes for children and young people.

For more information, please contact Garth Illingworth, Service Lead Residential and Supported Accommodation at: Garth.Illingworth@stockton.gov.uk.

We are recruiting four Therapeutic Practitioners to deliver For Baby’s Sake in a new Regional Team in the North East of England. The post will be home based with some elements of hybrid working. Applicants need to be located in the North East of England and be able to travel across the region to deliver a hybrid of online and face-to-face sessions.

For Baby’s Sake is an innovative, therapeutic, trauma-informed programme. We work with both co-parents individually, supporting a recovery framework to overcome the devastating effects of domestic abuse in their relationship. We acknowledge and explore unresolved and often complex childhood trauma and change harmful patterns of behaviour to develop a home environment where children can flourish. We adopt an attachment-focussed parenting approach that enhances the opportunity for children to feel safe and secure, with parents who are emotionally available and attuned to all their needs.

There must be a current pregnancy to harness change motivations, a desire on behalf of both parents to co-parent their unborn baby (although they do not have to be in a relationship) and we can work with the families up until the baby reaches the age of two. The significance of this two-year timescale is evidenced in all recent child development research.

You will have the opportunity to support the continued evolution of For Baby’s Sake whilst ensuring fidelity to the programme and sustaining the ethos and values of the For Baby’s Sake Trust.

For further details and an application form, please visit: https://www.northeastjobs.org.uk/job/Therapeutic_Practitioner/272026 To apply, please complete the application form and return it by email to: recruitment@forbabyssake.org.uk by midnight on 27th November 2024 for the Therapeutic Practitioners.

On receipt of your application, we will send you an equal opportunities monitoring form – this is confidential and voluntary and will not form part of the selection process.

Interviews for the Therapeutic Practitioners are planned for Tuesday 10th & Wednesday 11th December 2024 in Durham.

For an opportunity to discuss this vacancy informally, please contact either: Judith Rees, Director of Operations, The For Baby’s Sake Trust at: judithrees@forbabyssake.org.uk 07718247663 or Brenda Evans, Therapeutic Lead at: brendaevans@forbabyssake.org.uk on 07702538068 Further information about The For Baby’s Sake Trust can also be found at: www.forbabyssake.org.uk

For Baby’s Sake is an innovative, therapeutic, trauma-informed programme. We work with both co-parents individually, supporting a recovery framework to overcome the devastating effects of domestic abuse in their relationship. We acknowledge and explore unresolved and often complex childhood trauma and change harmful patterns of behaviour to develop a home environment where children can flourish. We adopt an attachment-focussed parenting approach that enhances the opportunity for children to feel safe and secure, with parents who are emotionally available and attuned to all their needs.

There must be a current pregnancy to harness change motivations, a desire on behalf of both parents to co-parent their unborn baby (although they do not have to be in a relationship) and we can work with the families up until the baby reaches the age of two. The significance of this two-year timescale is evidenced in all recent child development research.

You will have the opportunity to support the continued evolution of For Baby’s Sake whilst ensuring fidelity to the programme and sustaining the ethos and values of the For Baby’s Sake Trust.

For further details and an application form, please visit: https://www.northeastjobs.org.uk/job/Therapeutic_Practitioner/272026 To apply, please complete the application form and return it by email to: recruitment@forbabyssake.org.uk by midnight on 27th November 2024 for the Therapeutic Practitioners.

On receipt of your application, we will send you an equal opportunities monitoring form – this is confidential and voluntary and will not form part of the selection process.

Interviews for the Therapeutic Practitioners are planned for Tuesday 10th & Wednesday 11th December 2024 in Durham.

• Do you thrive in a dynamic, challenging environment where no two days are the same?

• Are you eager to make a real impact on the lives of young people while advancing your own career through excellent training and development opportunities?

The cluster of homes in Stockton Borough Council places a strong emphasis on family reunification and supporting young people in their journey toward foster care, with a deep commitment to trauma-informed care at its core. We understand that children entering our homes often come from backgrounds of significant adversity, and our approach is rooted in creating a stable, nurturing environment that prioritises healing and emotional safety. By working closely with families, we create individualised care plans that address the unique needs of each child, aiming to rebuild and strengthen family bonds wherever possible. Our team of care workers, supported by dedicated therapeutic staff, work collaboratively with external professionals to facilitate this reunification process, ensuring that parents or guardians are supported and equipped to provide a secure and loving home environment. In cases where reunification is not immediately possible, we carefully prepare young people for foster care, working at their pace to develop trust, resilience, and the skills needed to transition successfully into a family setting. Throughout this process, we maintain a consistent focus on the child’s emotional well-being, ensuring that they feel supported, heard, and respected as they navigate these significant changes in their lives.

We are looking for an experienced and motivated Registered Cluster Manager to lead and inspire a dedicated team across our cluster of up to three children’s homes. This is an exciting opportunity to shape the future of residential care in Stockton-on-Tees and contribute to life-changing outcomes for children and young people.

Maths Outreach Lead Hours of work: Full‐time (Part‐time, may be considered) Contract: Permanent Salary: L8‐L12 (£59,167‐£65,286) Start date: 6th January 2025 RECRUITMENT DATES Application Closing Date: 10am, Friday 11th October 2024 Interview Date: Provisionally, Tuesday 22nd October 2024 Providence Learning Partnership (initially through Durham Sixth Form Centre) aims to become a centre of excellence for the teaching and learning of mathematics, and to provide opportunities for students with an interest and aptitude for mathematics, especially to those from backgrounds currently under‐represented in the mathematical sciences.

The Trust works with students and teachers in other schools to promote deeper understanding and greater enjoyment of mathematics as well as supporting students to achieve higher attainment in their GCSE, leading to greater participation in mathematics at advanced levels, A‐level.

We are looking to appoint a dynamic and inspirational teacher, leader and manager who will take accountability for the development and delivery of our maths outreach projects. This leadership post is an opportunity for a knowledgeable and passionate educationalist who has experience of working in a school to take on a broad ranging role which has the potential for significant impact on young people with an enthusiasm for mathematics.

The post is full‐time, though applicants wishing to work part‐time will be considered. The expectation is that the successful candidate will teach mathematics at Durham Sixth Form Centre. The post holder will be given a significant reduction in their teaching allocation to allow them to fulfil the responsibilities of the role. Although we aim to undertake the majority of outreach during school hours (taster lessons, masterclasses etc.), some activities may happen outside of this (for example, early evening online revision classes and occasional Saturday open days) and so the successful candidate should be willing to offer some flexibility, when required, with their working hours.

The successful candidate must be committed to working in an inclusive environment in support of the values, vision, purpose and direction of Providence Learning Partnership.

DEPUTY HEAD TEACHER Salary: L11– L15 £60,486 - £66,627 (National pay award pending) Required: January 2025 or prepared to wait for the right candidate.

About the Trust The Trust was established in 2015 and provides education and enrichment activities to more than 1100 children across five Academies, located in Middlesbrough and Redcar and Cleveland local authority areas. Academies within the Trust are: • Brambles Primary Academy (3 to 11 years), • Discovery Special Academy (2 to 16 years), • Dormanstown Primary Academy (3 to 11 years), • Pennyman Primary Academy (2 to 11 years), and • Wilton Primary Academy (3 to 11 years).

About the role we are looking to appoint: The Deputy Head Teacher for Standards and Curriculum at Pennyman Primary Academy will play a pivotal role in not just maintaining, but continually raising educational standards and evolving the curriculum to meet the changing needs of our pupils. As an academy committed to excellence, Pennyman seeks a leader capable of driving improvement across all levels of teaching, learning, and assessment.

Pennyman Primary Academy is an inclusive learning community that educates 410 pupils, from two-year-olds through to Year 6. It is a larger than average school with a designated unit for children with complex physical and medical needs, which places additional emphasis on the importance of adaptable and progressive teaching strategies. To address these diverse needs, the Deputy Head will collaborate with the Headteacher and other senior leaders to ensure that the curriculum remains inclusive, dynamic, and engaging for all students, regardless of their abilities or learning needs.

In terms of raising standards, the successful candidate will focus on improving the quality of teaching and learning by implementing best practices, supporting teachers through coaching and mentoring, and ensuring that assessment methods accurately reflect children’s progress. This role is critical in maintaining the high expectations set by the academy, with Ofsted (2023) recognising that “pupils know implicitly how to behave and how to interact positively with each other and with staff” due to the school’s inclusive and supportive ethos.

The curriculum development aspect of the role requires the Deputy Head to be innovative and forward-thinking. The curriculum at Pennyman is designed to be broad and balanced, ensuring that children not only achieve academic success but also develop the social, emotional, and physical skills they need for life beyond school. The Deputy Head will work with subject leaders to constantly review and refine curriculum content, ensuring it is aligned with both national standards and the specific needs of the Pennyman community. This includes adapting learning strategies to support children with special educational needs, as well as stretching more able pupils to achieve their full potential.

Furthermore, the Deputy Head will be instrumental in data-driven decision making, using assessment data to identify areas where children may be underperforming and developing interventions to address these gaps. A focus on continual professional development (CPD) is also key to this role, providing staff with the necessary tools and training to meet ambitious performance targets, and equipping them with the skills to deliver a curriculum that fosters deep learning and sustained improvement.

For futher details please visit: https://www.northeastjobs.org.uk/job/Deputy_Head_Teacher/270743 Application packs can be downloaded or printed directly from the Trust website www.teesvalleyeducation.co.uk or requested from the Academy.
