• Developing, monitoring, and reviewing individual learning targets while effectively tracking and evidencing student progress against agreed outcomes.

• Creating communication-friendly learning environments through the use of visual supports, structured teaching strategies, assistive technology, and evidence-based interventions.

• Supporting students' social, emotional, behavioural, and communication development through targeted and individualised approaches.

• Working collaboratively with parents, carers, therapists, and external professionals to ensure consistency and continuity between home and school.

• Maintaining accurate records, contributing to individual support plans, annual reviews, EHCP-style documentation, and multidisciplinary meetings where required.

We are looking for a teacher who:

• Holds a recognised teaching qualification and relevant degree.

• Has experience teaching secondary-aged students with additional learning needs.

• Demonstrates excellent communication, organisation, and teamwork skills.

• Is reflective, adaptable, and committed to inclusive educational practice.
