Buttershaw Business & Enterprise
College is an improving school. We are an ambitious, community-focused
academy of just over 1400 students serving an area of social deprivation on the
southern edge of Bradford and seven miles from Leeds. BBEC is popular
locally and is rapidly becoming the school of choice for the community of
Buttershaw; for the last four years we have been over-subscribed in Year
7.
BBEC is an inclusive school, our school motto is ‘We all belong at
BBEC’. We
celebrate our differences and our similarities and do not tolerate
discrimination of any type. We have a bold approach to inclusion and work
so that all students and staff can bring their authentic selves to school.
BBEC has a cohesive, highly skilled
and ambitious staff team who work hard to ensure that every student is
successful. Many of our students face multiple challenges and it is through
clarity of vision, professionalism and determined support for students and for
each other that we are bringing about improvement. We have the highest
expectations for all our students and expect that our staff teach to the very
highest level. We have a rigorous approach to quality assurance and a
significant commitment to Continuing Professional Development. Teachers have
many opportunities to improve their teaching pedagogy and pedagogical subject knowledge
and we expect them to make the most of these opportunities to ensure that the
highest of standards are maintained.
BBEC is situated in a modern
building. It has well-equipped departments that are arranged in suites of
rooms. All teachers have a laptop, all classrooms are equipped with
projectors and interactive whiteboards and all classrooms have access to
student laptops.
All at BBEC are dedicated to raising
the aspirations of our students and improving cultural capital through
ambitious schemes of learning in all year groups and a varied offer of
extra-curricular activities and opportunities. We run trips and visits to
places in the UK and across the world, our students take place in a myriad of
competitions and our CEIAG programme is exemplary.
This exciting role offers great opportunities for the successful candidate and a chance to make a difference to some wonderful young people. We are looking for a Welfare and Mental Health Caseload Worker who is able to develop, coordinate and monitor a programme of support for students in school where mental health is a barrier to education.
This role has been created to coordinate and administrate current services whilst also providing bespoke student facing support therapies. The role will require close liaison with the SENDCo and DSL/DDSLs. CPD will be provided by BDAT and other agencies as appropriate.
Applications must be received by the closing date of 9am on 3 May 2024. Interviews to be held on 10 May 2024.
