We remain dedicated to meeting their unique religious and cultural needs, and we are proud of the inclusive environment we foster.
The importance of empowering those we support to realise their ambitions and aspirations remains a core value.Who we are.In 2023, Kisharon and Langdon, two leading organisations dedicated to supporting individuals with learning disabilities and autism, merged to create a newly formed entity, Kisharon Langdon.As a merged organisation, Kisharon Langdon is well placed to facilitate seamless transitions for individuals at key educational stages, starting from nursery age and progressing through further education and into employment opportunities.Our partnership consists of three educational provisions: Tuffkid Nursery, Kisharon Noé School and Langdon College, across early years, primary, secondary and post-16 phases of education.About the role.This will be an exciting time to join Langdon College with the organisation currently implementing a robust improvement plan as well as having ambitious plans for the future of our estate.The implementation of our improvement plan follows a disappointing inspection earlier this year (Ofsted, Inadequate, July 2024).
Despite this outcome, we were still judged to have behaviour & attitudes and personal development rated as Good.
The hard work of our staff is already being witnessed with inspectors reporting that we have made significant progress in their latest monitoring visit (November 2024).We have also recognised the need to develop our estate to offer improved opportunities and care for our learners.
As such, we have ambitious plans for the future of our estate, which will see us invest in a new dedicated site in the years ahead with an increase in student capacity for up to 75 learners.As the Head of Langdon College, you will be joining the Education Partnerships Directorate of Kisharon Langdon, led by our Director of Education, Dr Emily Haddock.
This Directorate also includes Tuffkid Nursery (Ofsted Outstanding) and Kisharon School (Ofsted Good).As our Head of Langdon College, you will succeed our current Interim Principal, Dr Carole Nicholson, who has been leading the delivery of our improvement plan, focusing on the quality of our curriculum offer whilst improving our safeguarding practices.
You will also lead the College in building new and influential relationships with stakeholders, support the development of our estate and continue to model an organisational culture that ensures our staff, learners and their families continue to feel supported and valued.As an experienced FE sector leader, you will manage the day-to-day operations of the College whilst using your understanding and knowledge of SEND provision to lead a team of dedicated and passionate staff – curriculum leads, teachers and therapists – to deliver the best possible outcomes for our learners, whilst ensuring that we continue to embed our Jewish ethos across the whole organisation.You will build on existing collaborative activities, working with leadership colleagues within the Directorate and across the wider Kisharon Langdon organisation, improving engagement with those leading on finance, health & safety and recruitment to form more joined-up and efficient processes.
Furthermore, you will work collaboratively with our local governing bodies and our Charity Chief Executive, ensuring that our operations continue to match strategic ambitions and intentions whilst contributing to the financial and budgetary controls of the organisation.You will bring a track record of developing successful partnerships as we work hard to ensure that Langdon is an outward-facing College that works collaboratively with others from across the sector, with parents and other key stakeholders.
Under your leadership, Langdon will seek to embrace opportunities and raise educational standards both internally and across the wider specialist sector.You will have the freedom and flexibility to use your leadership and management expertise to improve our provision from the foundations we already have in place, using your innovation and creativity to find solutions to the challenges we encounter along the way.The working week concludes at lunchtime on Fridays.Staff are entitled to additional leave on all Jewish festivals – 7 additional days of leave in 2025.Access to health & wellbeing support.Peridot Partners and Kisharon Langdon are, together, committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and our client expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
