We are an Alternative Provision Academy supporting children with SEND and social, emotional, and mental health needs, who have been identified as being at risk of exclusion, harm or have already been excluded from mainstream education. Children are referred to use by partner local authorities and schools within the Northwest Region.

At The Kassia Academy, we use trauma informed and therapeutic approaches to re-engage learners with their education. We are passionate about giving our young people the skills they need to make a valuable contribution to society and to fulfil their dreams. We recognise that education is not a ‘one size fits all’ model and we carefully tailor our provision to meet every individual’s needs.

Professionalism and having the highest expectations are at the heart of everything that we do: developing a love of learning and improving our learner’s life chances as a result.

We do things differently H.E.R.E 

• High Standards
• Empathy
• Resilience

If you are looking for a new challenge, with a desire to empower children to exceed expectations, this could be the school for you.

We are seeking a skilled and highly motivated KS3 Class Teacher to join our high-quality school. You will be required to teach a variety of subjects to a range of learners with SEND and SEMH needs.

Applications are actively encouraged from Year 5/Year 6 primary practitioners or those with a background in project-based learning.

If you have a proven track record of delivering excellence and also have a history of dealing with SEN needs and challenging behaviour, then this position may be for you.
