  • Monitor, assess and celebrate learner progress and achievement.
  • Contribute to EHCP targets and person‑centred learning plans.

  • Experience working with learners with SEND, ideally within a post-16 or specialist setting.
  • A creative, adaptable and nurturing approach to teaching.
  • Strong communication and teamwork skills.

Join a specialist education team where you can focus on what inspired you to teach in the first place: helping young people reach their full potential.
