SEN Teacher
We are seeking a highly experienced and dedicated teacher to join our SEND classroom and provide exceptional support to five children with additional needs. This is a full-time, long-term role, offering stability, commitment, and the opportunity to make a meaningful impact in a nurturing and inclusive environment.
The role involves teaching three Reception children and two Year 1 pupils who are developmentally at an 18-month level. All five children are non-verbal and in nappies, with four holding EHCPs and one in the process of assessment. While special school placements have been identified as appropriate by the Local Education Authority, there are currently no spaces available, and your role will be vital in providing the care and education they need.
If you are passionate about supporting children with SEND and are committed to creating a consistent, supportive learning environment, this is the ideal opportunity for you.

- A 'Refer a Friend' scheme, offering £300 in shopping vouchers.
- Ongoing support from a specialist consultant experienced in SEN education.
- Access to E-learning courses and CPD programmes to enhance your skills.
Key Responsibilities
- Teach a split Year 4/5 class, designing and delivering engaging lessons tailored to the needs of children with SEN.
