We are currently seeking a dedicated Year 5 SEND Teacher to join a welcoming mainstream primary school in Druid's Heath, starting ASAP on an ongoing basis.

The Year 5 class has a high level of additional needs and requires a second teacher to provide targeted, specialist support.

• Adapting and differentiating learning where required
• Providing targeted 1:1 and small-group support
• Supporting pupils with ASD and ADHD
• Managing and de-escalating challenging behaviour
• Building positive and trusting relationships with pupils
• Promoting inclusion, independence and confidence
• Working collaboratively with the class teacher and SEND team

• Experienced and confident working with SEND pupils
• Knowledgeable about ASD and ADHD
• Confident managing challenging behaviour
• Patient, calm and consistent
• Nurturing and supportive
• Able to build strong relationships with children
• Flexible and adaptable in their approach
• Passionate about supporting children with additional needs

This is a fantastic opportunity for a SEND Teacher who wants to work in a mainstream setting while having a specific focus on supporting pupils with additional needs.
