Send Teacher (Maternity Cover)

Job description

We are recruiting for a SEND Teacher who will be able to support in a specialist unit that is attached to a mainstream school. This will be to cover maternity leave from November 2023.
Experience of working with Social, Emotional and Mental Health needs (SEMH), and other Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) such as Autism, ADHD, and communication difficulties is desirable but not essential.
SEND Teachers know that no two days are the same and that no two children are the same either. We are looking for very special adults who can support children with complex and challenging behaviours.
They will know that children require lots of attention, just the right sort of communication, consistency and flexibility, and a non-judgemental approach. They need to be resilient, persistent and solution focused to meet the needs of the children.
Some elements of the role:
supporting and directing TA's to support the children in the classroom
working with children 1:1 or delivering sessions with small groups of students
managing classroom resources
managing heightened behaviours and keeping children safe
celebrating success
We require a teaching qualification with QTS as well as an enhanced DBS which is on the update service (or willing to purchase a DBS)
If you feel that you are the right person for this role, please apply online.
