How would you like to get paid for five days, but only work four?

At Outcomes First Group, we believe in better work/life balance — and we’re putting wellbeing first.

That’s why we’re proud to be part of a 4-Day Working Week (4DWW) trial, where you can work one day less each week (or equivalent hours), while still receiving your full-time pay.

Many of our schools have already introduced the 4DWW — and others are preparing to roll it out as soon as they reach full staffing. So, whether it’s already in place or just around the corner, now’s the perfect time to join #teamOFG.

Job Title: Primary SEN Teacher (Maternity Cover)
Location: Trent Acres, Kings Bromley, DE13 7HR
Hours: 40 hours per week | Monday to Friday | 8:00am – 4:00pm
Salary: Up to £40,000.00 per annum dependent on experience (not pro rata)
Contract: Fixed Term | Term Time Only
Start: February 2026
UK applicants only — this role does not offer sponsorship

Are you ready to make a genuine difference in a school where every moment matters?
We’re looking for a passionate, creative and nurturing Primary SEN Teacher to join our team on a maternity cover contract — someone who believes in the power of education to change lives.

If you’re driven by purpose, inspired by challenge, and committed to every child’s success, this is the role for you.

About the Role

You won’t just be teaching — you’ll be shaping brighter futures. As part of our caring, trauma-informed school community, you’ll support pupils across the primary phase, helping them grow in confidence, self-belief and academic achievement. Every day brings a new opportunity to inspire, uplift and connect.

No two days look the same! You’ll:

Teach the Primary National Curriculum in fun, meaningful and accessible ways.
Monitor, assess, and report on student progress and achievements.
Develop and implement individual education and behaviour plans.
Create a positive, well-organised classroom environment.
Collaborate with Learning Support Assistants and care staff to support student learning.
Manage challenging behaviour and promote self-regulation.
Liaise with internal teams, families, and external agencies to ensure a consistent approach.
Maintain accurate records and uphold safeguarding standards.
Contribute to school development initiatives and continuous improvement.
What We’re Looking For

Experience teaching students with additional or complex needs (preferred).
Secondary English specialism.
Strong communication, collaboration, and teamwork skills.
Commitment to safeguarding and promoting student welfare.
Ability to adapt teaching strategies to meet individual needs.
