Make learning an adventure

We are looking for a Head of Learning to join our school and play a pivotal role in shaping the development of teaching, learning and assessment. You will join an experienced team of Head of Learning, ensuring that high quality teaching and learning is accessible to all learners not just as a privilege, but as a right.

In Columbus School and College

Columbus provides for pupils aged between 3 and 19 with severe and profound learning difficulties, many of which also have autism. We deliver an excellent education to pupils across two campuses with some of the highest quality learning environments in the country for pupils with special needs. We provide a broad and ambitious curriculum that is profoundly focused on preparing learners for the future. We have high expectations of learners' progress across the key areas of communication and interaction; cognition and learning; sensory, physical health and development; social, emotional and mental health; and self help and independence. Each learner has a personalised curriculum closely related to their education, health and care plan (EHCP). The curriculum is designed through collaboration with parents and carers and, as necessary, other professionals and specialists.

We want pupils to be excited about coming to school and love learning. We want them to be motivated and challenged. Most of all, we want all of our pupils to be superbly well prepared for the future. To achieve this, teaching builds precisely on what pupils already know and can do.
