About the Role

English Teacher – Full-Time
Start Date: September or sooner!
Location: Lambeth, South East London
Salary: M1 - UP3

Help Young People Rediscover the Power of English
Some pupils arrive at school believing that English just isn’t for them. They’ve struggled with reading, lost writing confidence, or feel that there's nothing worth saying. But the right teacher can change everything.

That’s where you come in.

As an experienced English Teacher, you possess the skills and qualities vital to engaging young people in English.

A specialised setting
This specialist Alternative Provision in South East London supports children and young people who, because of exclusion, illness or other reasons, would not otherwise receive suitable education. These pupils may have faced challenges in mainstream education and need a calm, nurturing space to re-engage with learning.

Here, teaching is tailored, relationships matter, and every child is seen as an individual.

You’ll benefit from:

  • Smaller class sizes that allow for personalised teaching and strong relationships
  • Modern, well-resourced classrooms that bring creativity and structure to lessons
  • A collaborative team of therapists and support staff who work alongside you daily
  • Specialist learning areas, including sensory spaces, outdoor classrooms, and creative zones
  • A strong emphasis on wellbeing, for both staff and students

 

You Don’t Need to Be a SEND Expert—Just the Right Kind of Teacher
If you’ve never worked in a specialist setting before, that’s absolutely fine. What matters most is your passion for helping young people grow. Full SEND training and ongoing CPD are provided from the start, helping you build confidence in the role and develop your skills.

Parker Smith Inclusion – Experts in SEND Recruitment

We offer:

  • Tailored job matches based on your experience and aspirations
  • Exclusive partnerships with specialist schools across London
