Teaching that transforms lives. A career that grows with you.
If you are looking for a teaching role where you can build deep, meaningful connections with your students and see the real impact of your work every single day, Mac Intyre School in Wingrave has a place for you.
Located in a quiet village setting in rural Buckinghamshire, our 41-week residential and day school supports children and young people aged 10–19 with severe learning disabilities, autism, and complex sensory or communication needs.
Teaching here is designed for real, individualised impact. With small class sizes of up to six students, you have the time, space, and resources to focus on what truly matters: personal progress, independence, and well-being.

Key responsibilities include:

Purpose-built learning:
Utilize exceptional facilities including our Immersive Experience room, Therapy Zone, outdoor learning spaces, music and drama suite, and sports hall with a bouldering wall to deliver a creative, non-subject-specific curriculum.
Integrated approach:
Work collaboratively alongside on-site therapists, behaviour support specialists, residential staff, and families to support each young person holistically across their waking day.
Classroom leadership:
Lead, coach, and mentor a small team of Learning Support Assistants (LSAs) and Senior LSAs, modelling best practice and creating a calm, purposeful environment where everyone can do their best work.
