Special Education Teacher

SEND Teacher (ASC specialist) – January 2026 Start

Our client school, a specialist SEND provision for students aged 9–16, is seeking exceptional teachers to join their nurturing, autism-focused campus.

We are proud to be partnering with this forward-thinking provision to recruit passionate, skilled SEND Teachers who are committed to transforming the lives of young people with autism and additional needs such as ADHD, speech and language difficulties, learning delay and experiences of trauma.

Why You’ll Love Working Here:

• Small, highly supported classes (typically up to 10 students) allowing genuine connection and tailored teaching.
• A beautifully remodelled, purpose-built environment designed around the sensory and learning needs of autistic students.
• Access to on-site therapeutic services, including communication, emotional and behavioural support.
• A warm, collaborative team culture where staff wellbeing and professional development are prioritised.
• A rich curriculum blending academic, therapeutic and life-skills learning, helping students grow into confident and independent young people.
• Supportive leadership and clear values, ensuring a stable, positive and child-centred atmosphere.

About the School:

• Our partner school offers bespoke education for students with autism and additional needs.
• The focus is on safety, nurture and purposeful learning, supported by specialist staff, structured routines and a strong wellbeing ethos.

The Role

• You will plan and deliver personalised lessons, work closely with therapeutic teams and champion holistic progress.
• We welcome applications from teachers who are SEND-qualified or trained in mainstream but with a proven track record supporting SEND learners and now ready to move into a specialist environment.
