About their organisation
Our client is a national charity supporting children, young people, and adults with complex needs. Their newly developed Sixth Form offers a unique and specialised learning environment for young people aged 16–19 with a wide range of learning difficulties, disabilities, and health conditions, including epilepsy and autism.
They provide bespoke education and transition support that equips their learners with the skills, confidence, and independence they need for adulthood. It’s a calm, structured, and aspirational environment where meaningful learning takes place every day.
They are proud to be a values-led organisation — aspirational, collaborative, joyful, and compassionate — and they're looking for a talented teacher who shares their commitment to helping young people live life to the full.
About the Role
Following the successful launch of our brand new Sixth Form in September, they are seeking exceptional SEN Teachers to join their Sixth Form team to support their increasing admissions as the service continues to grow.
