Teachers in special schools are responsible for creating a safe and progressive learning environment for children and young people who require a more bespoke curriculum to fulfil their education journey.

The approach is often on a one-to-one basis, where traditional teaching styles are adapted and modified to facilitate the needs of everyone. Adjustments may be in teaching methods, curriculum materials and alternative assessment techniques to accommodate diverse learning abilities and disabilities.

Often, SEN Teachers are supported by teaching assistants and have access to various assistive technologies and alternative communication methods to ensure an inclusive approach to students accessing and engaging with a curriculum that works for them.

If you have been a teacher in mainstream, the transition to SEND can be a rewarding and exciting career choice. Give it a try!

Being part of a close-knit team of caring, supportive and tenacious professionals, each with their own unique approach and the freedom to deliver teaching in a style individualised to the learning abilities of the children and young people, you can really make a difference to pupil outcomes.

Delivering on the values of a school where creativity is encouraged, student independence is paramount and being focused on inspiring the students to achieve their best, are the key motivators in this role.

Career progression opportunities are limitless for the right candidate, with CPD and leadership development delivered as standard, this is where your future as a teacher will really take off!

If this sounds like a position that would suit you, please apply today.

Welcome Bonus of 5% of starting salary available (subject to t&c's)
