We have a number of volunteering staff members who come from various senior education school backgrounds with lots of skills, knowledge, qualification including semi-retired SEN staff, teachers in mainstream schools and Scouts including student teachers. Our student teachers can gain opportunities for teaching role responsibilities and experience in the primary education sector and to be passionate about providing a high quality education to those with complex needs.
Volunteering in our class setting is a hugely valuable and rewarding experience for both the children and the staff member. We provide many opportunities for volunteering here at Brackely STEAM Park, from listening to children read to supporting them with their learning in all aspects of their education.
We have a strict safeguarding policy in place and all volunteering members undertake training in safeguarding areas. All volunteering members including senior members undertake a comprehensive background police checks on all volunteers for whom this is required. This includes DBS Barred List. All volunteer members have an enhanced DBS certificate with (Barred List checks)
