About this Role

The successful candidate will be a dedicated and reflective practitioner who is passionate about helping children with a range of special educational needs thrive academically, socially and emotionally. Our curriculum pathways are carefully mapped and resourced to support National Curriculum coverage at the appropriate stage, with identified interventions to remove barriers to learning. You will also have the flexibility to plan and deliver creative, engaging and appropriately challenging lessons that draw on pupils’ strengths and interests.

A strong understanding of inclusive practice, adaptive teaching and strategies to support communication, sensory needs and emotional regulation will be essential. You will work closely with colleagues, families and external professionals to support pupils’ holistic development and contribute positively to the wider life of the school.

Knowledge or experience of Early Years pedagogy would be advantageous, as many of our pupils benefit from developmental, play-based and sensory-informed approaches. In addition, an understanding of autism and associated needs would be valuable in supporting communication, social interaction and emotional regulation within the classroom.

The role requires patience, flexibility and high expectations, alongside a commitment to ongoing professional development and reflective practice. Above all, you will share our belief that every child can succeed and will play a key role in supporting pupils to develop confidence, independence and a love of learning throughout their KS2 journey.

Please note: The school reserves the right to close this vacancy early should a suitable number of applications be received. We therefore encourage interested candidates to submit their applications promptly, as the post may be filled before the advertised closing date.
