About the role
3 Year Fixed-Term Contract.
The London Borough of Harrow is looking to appoint a committed, hardworking and motivated advisory teacher for children who are blind or who have vision needs to join our established Children’s Sensory Team. This is an exciting and rewarding opportunity to support children and young people across a range of educational and community settings.
We recognise that recruiting teachers with the right specialist qualifications and experience can be challenging. We will therefore seriously consider strong applicants who do not yet hold the specialist qualification, provided they are committed to completing the postgraduate Mandatory Qualification for Teachers of Children and Young People with Vision Impairment (QTVI).
The successful candidate will work with children and young people aged from birth to 25 years, including those with additional needs, to promote progress, independence and successful inclusion. The role involves providing specialist teaching, advice and learning opportunities, as well as supporting schools and settings to make the curriculum accessible.
You will also provide training and guidance to educational setting staff, intervenors and other professionals, helping them to support children and young people who are blind or who have vision needs effectively.
Closing date: 14/09/2026
Shortlisting: 16/09/2026
Interviews: W/C 21st September & 28th September.
The post is required as soon as possible, or from January 2027.
About You
Essential requirements:
- Qualified Teacher Status recognised in the UK and successful teaching experience.
- Qualified Teacher of Vision Impairment status (QTVI), or a clear commitment to successfully complete the Mandatory Qualification for Teachers of Children and Young People with Vision Impairment.
