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 lots of ups and downs, and for some of our young people, sitting through a lesson can be a big win. We call these huge small victories, and while 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. You will need to be resilient and dedicated, but those huge small victories will be something you’re really proud of.
It can be a tough journey, but the positive steps forward will more than compensate. As a Teacher at Witherslack Group, you’ll receive full support, including in-house psychologists, teaching assistants, and therapy professionals. Your colleagues will be experts in their fields, 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
Queensmead House School is located on a historic site with views of Windsor Castle. This inspiring setting, with a rich heritage of education, is now a specialist learning environment rated Good by Ofsted.
QHS is an independent specialist day school, offering primary and secondary education to a diverse group of pupils with complex needs, communication difficulties, and challenging behaviors.
