What skills and experience we're looking for

The Management Committee of Rowhill School are seeking to appoint a talented, energetic, and forward-thinking teacher to join our passionate and committed school team. This is an exciting time for Rowhill. Our Executive Headteacher joined the leadership team in February 2024 and our staff team are working together to rapidly improve the school and provide an exceptional standard of education for young people in our care.

At Rowhill we believe that every young person should have a second chance. Providing education for young people who have been permanently excluded, have medical needs or are at risk of permanent exclusion is challenging and we are privileged to have a creative, tenacious and resilient staff team who dedicate their days to providing bespoke, flexible learning opportunities for our students.

Wellbeing for both staff and students is at the heart of what we do. We have made significant changes to the curriculum and timetable in order to support learning and progress. Every Friday consists of an enrichment programme where staff and students engage in a variety of activities, either on site or offsite to support our ethos of relational practice and forming strong relationships for students to utilise both in the classroom and out of school. Teaching staff have the option to leave early on a Friday, finishing at 2pm.

Recent parent, pupil and staff surveys have indicated the positive steps we have made and the immediate impact on both staff and students. One staff member (September 2024) commented “All the changes contributed to my approach to work. I look forward to coming to work and see what our pupils will cook in their lesson. It gives me great pleasure to see pupils and staff eating together. I enjoy my role and excited to share my ideas every week and I know that my ideas will be discussed and open to changes. 'Friday Funday' helps to create a bond with pupils and just makes this school a great place to work.” Another commented “The work environment (2024 - 2025) is wonderful and everyone is friendly and supportive.”

Our recent parent survey (Oct 2024) showed that 100% of parents said their child felt safe at school, is making progress and the school helps to support their child’s learning.

We are looking for an experienced teacher who is looking for their next challenge. You will be teaching within our vocational faculty, mainly Personal Development as well as Health and Social Care. You will need a passion for working with students who exhibit challenging behaviour as communication of their need; a proven record of successful teaching and progress for all as well as the ability to form positive relationships with staff and students; a sense of humour and the ability to be flexible in an environment where no two days are the same.

What the school offers its staff

• Teaching staff have the option to leave early on a Friday, finishing at 2pm
• Access to CPD from SSS, Hampshire Local Authority, Subject Specific CPD and an in-house CPD
• A dedicated Inclusion Team that supports teachers with pupils’ behaviour
• Contribution to the Teacher’s Pension Scheme
• A staff room with complimentary refreshments
• Employee Assistance Programme

The VHA is a mission driven, federally funded organization that emphasizes putting the patient first. The mission is to "Honor America's Veterans by providing exceptional health care that improves their health and well-being." VA New England is leading the VHA's Primary Care initiative in the Patient Aligned Care Team (PACT) model embedded in an innovative, Whole Health oriented Primary Care Delivery System. This system leverages best health care practices built on standardized work processes that optimize the unique contributions of each discipline. We cultivate a highly dynamic, integrative, and collaborative team environment. VHA is on a journey towards becoming a High Reliability Organization. The PACT model serves a complex panel of Veteran patients. Our Whole Health system empowers and equips people to take charge of their health and well-being and includes complimentary and integrative health approaches that enhance self-empowerment, self-healing, and self-care. Our patients develop longitudinal relationships with the entire team comprised of clinical pharmacy practitioners, dieticians, social workers and behavioral health providers. This team collaborates to address patient needs, mitigate social determinants of health and proactively manage the health of our population. Our typically smaller panel sizes, wide array of support services and virtual care options (from video visits to mobile apps and patient generated data) provide more flexibility for how Veterans engage in their own health care and with their team. The social worker in this veteran-centric approach often functions as a care coordinator and case manager for primary care veterans in all settings to ensure that health care meets the needs, as defined by the veteran. The primary care social worker is responsible to answer social work and advance directive consults, to triage and refer veteran needs to other social work practice areas as appropriate, and to utilize population health management to provide proactive outreach in order to improve quality of care. The primary care Social Worker will also work with veterans utilizing specialty care such as, but not limited to, urgent care, neurology and pain clinics as these veterans and families can often benefit from social work support in addressing social determinants of health. The role of a social worker case manager in the PACT is to assess and treat psychosocial and environmental factors that impact the patient's ability to achieve maximum health and wellness. Social work case managers assess the patient's psychological and emotional adjustment to illness within the context of medical diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment options.

The duties and responsibilities include but are not limited to:

• Maintain effective therapeutic relationships with veterans in the primary care clinic and/or their families.
• Complete thorough psychosocial assessments to determine the psychosocial functions and needs of veterans and/or their families.
• Actively participate as a member of the interdisciplinary treatment team.
• Facilitate action for community placements through collaboration with veterans and their families as well as interdisciplinary treatment team members to ensure that appropriate community placements are completed in a timely manner.
• Serves as a liaison between veterans and/or their families and VA and community resources in order to ensure thorough delivery of services.
• Provides consultation and education to veterans and their families regarding community resources, VA benefits and specialty programs and advance directives.
• Provides consultation to other treatment team and staff members regarding psychosocial needs of veterans and/or families and the impact the issues may have on the veterans health care planning and compliance with treatment.
• Make referrals to community and other governmental programs and agencies.
• Provide case management services to the veterans and their families throughout the continuum of care.
