The Opportunity

We are seeking a passionate, dedicated and enthusiastic Class Teacher to join a highly regarded specialist SEN school in the Edgware area.

The school supports pupils aged 4–11 with severe and complex learning difficulties, including autism and associated needs. With small class sizes, excellent staff support and a strong multidisciplinary approach, this is an excellent opportunity for a teacher looking to make a real difference in children's lives.

What the School Offers

• Competitive salary of MPS/UPS plus SEN allowance.

• Small class sizes with a strong teaching assistant team.

• Excellent staffing ratios, typically one teacher to three TA's.

• Comprehensive induction and a named mentor for early-career teachers.

• Dedicated CPD budget and access to specialist SEN training.

• On-site multidisciplinary support, including speech and language therapists, occupational therapists, physiotherapists and educational psychologists.

• Opportunities to lead and develop your own classroom team.

• Flexible working arrangements considered wherever possible.

The Role

As Class Teacher, you will take responsibility for planning, delivering and assessing a broad, balanced and engaging curriculum tailored to pupils with severe and complex learning difficulties, including autism.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Planning and delivering differentiated, engaging lessons that meet individual learning needs.

• Leading and managing a team of teaching assistants to ensure high-quality teaching and support.

• Monitoring, assessing and recording pupils' progress and development.

• Creating a positive, safe and stimulating learning environment.

• Implementing effective positive behaviour management strategies.

• Working collaboratively with parents, carers and the wider multidisciplinary team.

• Supporting pupils' communication, social, emotional and physical development.

• Contributing to curriculum development and whole-school improvement.

• Supporting pupils to develop independence and prepare for future transitions.

The Ideal Candidate

We are keen to hear from:

• Qualified teachers holding QTS.

• Teachers eligible for QTS or currently working towards qualification within three years.

• Experienced SEN teachers and practitioners.

• Mainstream teachers looking to transition into specialist SEN education.

You will be passionate about inclusive education, patient, adaptable and committed to helping children with complex needs reach their full potential.

Previous experience within SEN, autism or complex learning difficulties would be beneficial, but applications from strong mainstream teachers looking to develop their SEN experience are also welcomed.
