Cherry Garden is an outstanding community special school that meets the needs of a range of children (aged between 2-11 years who have) with severe and complex learning differences. We are in a new state of the art building with excellent facilities and extensive grounds and it goes without saying the children are ‘amazing’. Please check out our Twitter account @CherryGdnSchool and our Instagram @cherrygardensch to see them in action!

The Headteacher and the Governing body are looking to appoint an enthusiastic and passionate teacher from September 2024 who is keen to develop their knowledge and skills in working with pupils with complex needs. We provide extensive support to our mainstream primary and early years partners and work closely with the Teaching Schools Alliance on Leadership CPD programmes.

Early Career Teachers, Primary/Early Years teachers new to special needs are very welcome to apply, as well as those who have more experience. We can offer you bespoke professional development and support in a vibrant and fun working environment. We have a ‘can do’ culture where innovation and creativity is within our DNA.

Cherry Garden is located in vibrant Peckham, Zone 2 (5 min. walk from Peckham Rye Station). There are a multitude of shops, cafés, leisure facilities and open spaces on our doorstep as well as excellent transport links.

Previous experience within a special needs setting is desirable but not essential. Visits during the school day are actively encouraged. For informal discussions/visits please contact the school via email hr@cherrygardenschool.co.uk or call 020 7237 4050.
