This is an opportunity to step away from the pressures of large classes and become part of a supportive, multidisciplinary team that is passionate about transforming lives. Whether you're an experienced SEN Teacher or a mainstream teacher looking for a more rewarding career path, we'll provide the training, support and development you need to thrive.

Inspire students to build confidence, independence and a love of learning. Create a safe, structured and nurturing classroom environment. Monitor progress and adapt teaching strategies to help every student succeed. Work collaboratively with therapists, support staff and families to achieve the best outcomes.

Contribute to EHCP reviews, personalised learning plans and wider school life. Champion student wellbeing, safeguarding and positive behaviour. What you will bring Qualified Teacher Status (QTS/QTLS) or an equivalent recognised teaching qualification required. Passionate about helping students overcome barriers and achieve their potential.
