SEN Teacher

Full-Time | September 2026 Start | KS4 Nurture Group

We are seeking a committed and compassionate qualified teacher (QTS required) to join our team from September 2026 on a full-time basis. This role is initially a maternity cover for the Autumn Term, with the potential to become a longer-term or ongoing position.

About the Role

You will be teaching a KS4 nurture group, working with a small class of pupils who benefit from a highly personalised, supportive approach to learning. The curriculum is adapted to focus on functional learning, independence, and life skills, alongside core academic development.

While the class is Key Stage 4 in age, students are currently working at an earlier developmental stage. We warmly welcome applications from both Primary and Secondary trained teachers, particularly those with experience in adapting learning to meet a wide range of needs.

Support & Environment

  • Small class size with excellent Teaching Assistant support

  • A collaborative and nurturing staff team

  • Opportunities to make a meaningful difference in pupils’ daily lives and long-term outcomes

About the Setting

This specialist setting supports children and young people with a variety of additional needs, including:

  • Moderate to severe learning difficulties

  • Communication and interaction needs

  • Social communication differences

All pupils are supported through individualised Education, Health and Care Plans (EHCPs), and teaching is highly differentiated to ensure every learner can thrive.

Requirements

  • Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) – essential

  • Experience working with pupils with additional needs

  • A patient, adaptable and nurturing teaching approach

Apply Now!

If you are interested in this opportunity, please apply as soon as possible. Interviews will need to be arranged prior to the summer holidays.

We're excited to hear from you!
