Primary Teacher

Are you a primary teacher ready for a rewarding new challenge?

We are seeking a passionate and reflective Teacher to join our dedicated SEN school community. This role would particularly suit an experienced primary teacher who is looking to transition into a specialist setting and make a profound difference in the lives of children with additional needs.

We provide a nurturing, structured and highly supportive environment for pupils with a range of Special Educational Needs. Our children thrive with consistency, creativity and adults who truly understand them.

The Role

You will lead a small class of pupils with SEN, supported by a high ratio of skilled Teaching Assistants. The role involves:

• Planning and delivering personalised, engaging lessons tailored to individual needs.
• Adapting the primary curriculum to meet EHCP outcomes and developmental stages.
• Leading and managing a team of Teaching Assistants within your classroom.
• Supporting pupils with communication needs, sensory differences and, at times, challenging behaviour.
• Creating a calm, safe and nurturing classroom environment where every success is celebrated.

Who We're Looking For

We would love to hear from you if you:

• Are a qualified primary teacher with strong classroom practice (QTS is essential)
• Have experience working with pupils with SEN (in mainstream or specialist settings).
• Are confident leading, directing and positively managing support staff.
• Have a calm, patient and flexible approach.
• Are committed to inclusive education and believe every child can achieve.

Previous experience in a specialist setting is desirable, but not essential for the right candidate with a genuine passion for SEN and a willingness to learn.

What We Offer

• A supportive and experienced leadership team.
• High levels of classroom support.
• Ongoing professional development and SEN-specific training.
• The opportunity to make a lasting difference in a child's educational journey.

If you are ready to take your primary teaching skills into a specialist setting where relationships, teamwork and creativity are key, we would love to hear from you.
