Contract: Ongoing, with potential to become permanent

Essential: QTS, Primary experience, Autism experience
We’re looking for a genuinely brilliant Class Teacher to take on an EYFS/Year 1 class within a small, specialist Autism provision. This is a class of just 8 pupils, all of whom thrive on structure, creativity and consistency — so we need someone who brings calm, confidence and a real passion for early learning.
The Role
You’ll be leading a mixed EYFS/Y1 group with a strong focus on communication, nurturing routines and tailored learning. The team around you is warm, experienced and very collaborative, so you’ll never be left to figure things out alone. The school puts a big emphasis on relationships, wellbeing and practical progress rather than rigid box‑ticking.
What We’re After
We’re not just trying to fill a vacancy — we’re trying to find the right person. Someone reliable, enthusiastic and genuinely committed to SEN and early years.
You’ll need:
QTS (essential)
Solid Primary experience, ideally across EYFS/KS1
Confident experience working with autistic pupils
A calm, patient and creative approach
The ability to plan and adapt quickly when needed
Why This Role?
Immediate start
Ongoing long‑term role with the option to go permanent if you love it
Small class and strong support network
A chance to make a real difference every single day
A leadership team that actually values its staff
