SEN Teacher - Lewisham / Role Details:
I am seeking to appoint an excellent experienced SEN Teacher to an Outstanding (Ofsted) SEN school for pupils from 11-19 with autism based in Lewisham. The school benefits from excellent staffing ratios, small class sizes and a highly personalised approach to learning.
The team are expanding and this is an exciting opportunity to join their 6th for site, teaching in Post 16.
The class consists of 9 pupils from KS5 with Autism, SLD and some mental health and behavioural challenges. Behaviour can on occasions be challenging but to combat this the class is supported by 4 full time TAs and there are clear strategies in place for each of the children.
SEN Teacher - Lewisham - School Details:
This Lewisham school offers state of the art purpose built facilities accessible to all students including those with visual impairment. These include:
8. Hydrotherapy pool with sensory environment.
9. Specially adapted and equipped science, art, music and technology rooms.
10. A Sensory room.
11. Specially equipped playground.
12. Two minibuses for use in the community.
The Ideal Applicant:
A background teaching secondary aged pupils with complex ASD and low communication skills (PECS & Makaton) is desirable. In addition to the class teacher role there is a the possibility of a TLR in the next 12 months as the current ASD lead will be taking on broader leadership responsibilities across school in the next 12 months as the school re-shapes its leadership model as part of succession planning for the next two to three years. The school are happy for applications from those with recent experience in a UK SEN environment including Overseas Trained Teachers (OTTs) either with QTS or with the possibility of obtaining QTS in the next 6-12 months. The School are happy to consider applicants from a mainstream or PRU background and there is an excellent induction programme in place for all teachers.
