What you’ll be doing
As our SEND Teacher, you will deliver high-quality, inclusive teaching within our Hive provision, supporting pupils with additional needs to make meaningful progress towards their EHCP and IEP outcomes.
You will create a safe, nurturing and engaging learning environment, adapting teaching approaches to meet individual needs and supporting pupils to build independence, communication skills and confidence. You’ll work closely with teaching assistants, the SENDCo, families and external agencies to ensure a joined-up, child-centred approach.
This role offers a unique opportunity to work in a specialist provision within a mainstream school, helping shape inclusive practice and making a real difference to children’s lives.
