c£25,000 pa pro rata
6 months contract (maternity cover)
Museum of London and Museum in Docklands are committed to providing inspirational and accessible learning opportunities to the widest range of people. We offer a rich programme of tailored sessions and resources, both museum-based and in schools, for pupils with special educational needs (SEN). This post will manage the programme, liaising closely with class teachers and the freelance educators, storytellers, artists and actors who deliver the sessions. The post holder will also help coordinate other schools’ projects, keeping financial records, writing progress reports and monitoring evaluation.
Applicants should have a successful track record of developing and delivering learning programmes and resources for schools, ideally for pupils with SEN, and proven administrative and project management skills. Knowledge of the National Curriculum and an understanding of the learning needs of pupils with SEN are essential. Experience of working in a museum or similar organisation would be an advantage.
Applications for part-time working (2-3 days per week) to cover just the SEN aspects of this post will be considered.
