Inclusion Teacher - Foundations Stage and Key Stage 1

The Arbor School seeks a special individual for an exciting opportunity within our Foundation Stage and Primary School. The successful candidate will play a key role in fulfilling the school's ecological and sustainability vision, while ensuring that every child is supported, challenged and empowered to achieve their full potential.

The Arbor School is seeking a highly motivated and experienced Foundation Stage and Primary Key Stage 1 Inclusion Teacher to join our Learning Support and Enrichment Department from August 2027.

We are looking for a passionate and dedicated teacher with a strong understanding of inclusive education, early childhood development and a genuine commitment to supporting children with diverse learning needs. The successful applicant will demonstrate the ability to provide tailored learning experiences, promote independence and confidence, and work collaboratively with colleagues and families to ensure positive academic, social and emotional outcomes for every child.

The Arbor School opened in 2018 with a very different vision of what education could and should be – experiential, authentic and inspired by the natural beauty, human ingenuity, and profound ecological and social challenges of the Arabian Peninsula.

Arbor teachers are part of a community which is inclusive, fun-loving, and active. Arbor teachers enjoy authentic friendships with their colleagues, positive relationships with school leaders who care for their wellbeing, and are a team in the true sense.

Arbor teachers are resilient in the face of challenge, stable and calm in the face of change, and creative and flexible when solving problems. Arbor teachers bring their passions and interests to enrich our school and are clear that there is an expectation to do so.

We commit to meeting agreed deadlines, communicating proactively with an assumption of positive intent, and sharing a passion for providing an education of the highest quality to our students.

The successful candidate will be an experienced and compassionate Inclusion Teacher, responsible for supporting children with a diverse range of learning needs across Foundation Stage and Primary Key Stage 1.

Working closely with the Learning Support and Enrichment Department, classroom teachers, pastoral teams and parents, the successful candidate will develop and implement individualised learning plans and appropriate early interventions to ensure that every child receives the support and challenge they need to thrive.

The role requires a reflective, collaborative and skilled practitioner who understands the importance of early identification, play-based learning, communication and language development, and differentiated teaching approaches.

We are seeking an individual who demonstrates a genuine commitment to children's wellbeing, celebrates individual differences and embraces the unique ecological ethos of The Arbor School.
