Are you a teacher who wants more than just delivering lessons — someone who wants to genuinely change the trajectory of a child’s life?
At Smile Education, we are working with a welcoming and inclusive SEN school in Wolverhampton that is looking for a dedicated Primary SEN Teacher to join their team. This is a school where every child is understood as an individual, and where your teaching will have a direct, visible impact every single day.
You won’t just be teaching a class — you’ll be helping pupils build confidence, independence, and the skills they need both inside and outside the classroom.
What your role will look like You will be leading a primary SEN class, where no two learners are the same. Your ability to adapt, connect, and inspire will be key.
You will be:
Planning and delivering engaging, tailored lessons that meet a wide range of additional needs
Adapting your teaching style in real-time to ensure every pupil can access learning in a way that works for them
Creating a structured, calm, and positive classroom environment where pupils feel safe and supported
Monitoring progress closely, celebrating small wins, and using this to shape your next steps
Working closely with teaching assistants, ensuring you’re aligned and consistent in your approach
Collaborating with the SENCO and external professionals to provide the best possible support for each child
Contributing to and reviewing Individual Education Plans (IEPs), making sure targets are meaningful and achievable
Building strong relationships with parents and carers, keeping them informed and involved in their child’s journey.This is a role where patience, creativity, and emotional intelligence matter just as much as teaching ability. Some days will test you — but the progress you’ll see makes it genuinely worthwhile.
