Those Huge Small Victories
Our teachers are fulfilled by the idea of making even the smallest positive changes in our young people, so we celebrate the little things. There are many ups and downs, and to some of our young people, sitting through a lesson can be a big win. We call these huge small victories, and whilst they may seem small on the surface, they add up to make a big difference.
Get out what you put in
You’ll be working with children and young people with Autistic Spectrum Disorder/Social, Emotional and Mental Health needs. You’ll help them learn, develop their abilities, and raise their self-esteem. Resilience and dedication are essential, but the huge small victories you achieve will be something to be proud of.
It can be a tough journey, but the positive steps forward will more than make up for it. As a Teacher at Witherslack Group, you’ll receive full support from in-house psychologists, teaching assistants, and therapy professionals. Your colleagues will be experts, the school environments will be well-resourced, and we’ll support you every step of the way to build a rewarding teaching career.
One of the best environments in SEND
Opening in April 2025, Cheshire Hall School is a purpose-built, state-of-the-art school. It provides education for up to 120 pupils aged 5-19, with needs including autism and social, emotional, and mental health needs. This exciting opportunity serves Sandbach and the wider community, with a focus on individual progress and care to ensure an outstanding educational experience for every pupil.
