At Pivot we believe children deserve better. We are a specialist independent provision with sites in both Kirklees and Leeds. Our curriculum offer is focused on developing the whole learner, working with their interests to engage them in education in order for them to feel successful and to take positive steps in their journey to adulthood.

Pivot Academy Leeds operate over three sites in very close proximity. We have our core provision for learners with Autism, complex social interaction needs, emotional challenges and other learning needs. Our nurture provision is for those that require a very bespoke offer tailored to their needs, abilities and interests. Our LINKS provision is for learners who have emotional based school anxiety (EBSA).

We have an exciting opportunity for a primary teacher or SEND teacher to work at a school that truly believes all children deserve better. We offer a full programme of CPD and are supported by our central team which consists of a Lead SENCO, Therapeutic Lead, Educational Psychologist and others.

We are a welcoming team who are creative, flexible and supportive and place a huge emphasis on wellbeing.

We are open to discussions regarding flexible working and look forward to hearing from you.
