About the Role
As an SEN Teacher, you will play a vital role in delivering a highly personalised and inclusive education for pupils with additional needs. Working within small classes or on a one-to-one basis, you will create engaging, adaptable learning experiences that support each child’s academic progress alongside their social and emotional development. You will collaborate closely with a multi-disciplinary team to ensure that every pupil’s Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) is effectively implemented and reviewed, enabling them to thrive in a safe, structured and supportive environment.
Individualised Provision: Develop, implement and review Individual Education Plans (IEPs), behaviour plans and EHCP targets, ensuring learning is tailored to each pupil’s needs.
Curriculum Delivery: Plan and teach differentiated lessons across the National Curriculum, adapting content through visual supports, sensory strategies and assistive technology to maximise accessibility and engagement.
Assessment & Progress Monitoring: Track, record and report on pupil progress, prepare documentation for annual reviews, and contribute to whole-school development priorities.
Behaviour & Pastoral Support: Apply trauma-informed and therapeutic approaches to support pupils with complex needs, promoting emotional regulation, positive behaviour and increasing independence.
Collaboration & Communication: Work as part of a multi-professional team, liaising regularly with support staff, therapists, care teams and parents/carers to ensure consistency between school and home.
Safeguarding & Professional Practice: Maintain high professional standards, uphold safeguarding responsibilities, manage classroom resources effectively, and ensure compliance with all school policies and regulatory requirements.

Qualifications: Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) or equivalent
Experience: Proven experience working with children with SEND, specifically managing emotional and behavioural difficulties.
Knowledge: Deep understanding of how to adapt SMSC and British Values for pupils with varying cognitive levels.
Skills: Exceptional interpersonal and communication skills to build rapport with vulnerable pupils and their families.
Qualities: A calm, caring nature with high expectations for the personal growth of every child.
Requirements: Full UK Driving Licence.
