Location: Burnley, Lancashire
Start Date: ASAP
Salary: .56 per day
Contract: Temporary to Permanent (Temp-to-Perm)
Are you an resilient educator looking for a fresh start in Burnley?
Tradewind are seeking a dedicated and trauma-informed SEMH Teacher to join a forward-thinking specialist school in Burnley. This school supports students with Social, Emotional, and Mental Health (SEMH) needs, as well as Autistic Spectrum Conditions (ASC).
This is a Temp-to-Perm opportunity, meaning you have the chance to ensure the school is the right fit for you before committing to a permanent contract. If you have a passion for re‑engaging "hard to reach" learners, we want to hear from you.
The Role
* Plan and deliver a bespoke curriculum for small classes (typically 5-8 students) with varying academic abilities.
* Manage complex behaviours using de‑escalation techniques and a nurturing, calm approach.
* Foster a safe learning environment where students feel supported to overcome barriers to learning.
* Work alongside a multidisciplinary team, including therapists and experienced TAs, to implement EHCP targets.
* Build strong relationships with students who may have experienced previous educational trauma.
The Ideal Candidate
* Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) or QTLS is essential.
* Experience in SEMH or ASC settings is highly desirable, though we welcome applications from mainstream teachers with strong behaviour management skills.
* Nurturing yet firm: You must be able to set clear boundaries while maintaining an empathetic outlook.
* Resilient and Adaptable: No two days are the same; you must be able to "think on your feet."
* Team Player: You will be leading a team of support staff and must communicate effectively.
Why Apply?
* Temp-to-Perm Security: Gain a permanent role through a supported trial period.
* Competitive Pay: Paid to scale from day one in most instances.
* Burnley Based: Easily accessible via the M65 and local public transport links.
* Expert Support: Dedicated consultants who understand the SEN sector in Lancashire.
