If you’re a qualified teacher who’s thinking, I want to make a bigger difference, this could be the role for you.

We’re helping a growing specialist school in the Richmond borough. It’s part of a respected trust that focuses on therapeutic education and relational practice. The school supports secondary-aged pupils with Autism, ADHD, and SEMH, all with EHCPs. The environment is calm, consistent, and supportive, but this role is challenging.

You will need strong teaching skills and a genuine ability to connect with students who may not trust easily. However, the leadership team is excellent, the ethos is strong, and the impact you will have here is both immediate and lasting.

What the role looks like:

Full-time classroom teacher role, secondary phase
Teaching a broad, adapted curriculum to small classes
Supported by skilled TAs and pastoral staff who know the students well
You will use restorative, trauma-informed approaches daily
There’s a strong focus on emotional safety, relationships, and belonging

Who this would suit:

A qualified teacher (QTS or QTLS)
Primary, Secondary, or SEND trained
Someone with experience in SEMH, PRU, or specialist settings
ECTs are welcome, as long as you’re emotionally mature and ready for the learning curve
A teacher who’s values-driven and calm during challenges

What’s in it for you?

Part of a progressive trust with a real commitment to inclusion
Excellent CPD, mentoring, and ongoing training
Supportive, hands-on leadership who’ve been in your position
Long-term to permanent role, with a clear path to joining the school’s core staff team
PAYE daily rate matched to your experience on the Outer London MPS

QTS or QTLS is essential
Strong behaviour management based on empathy and consistency
A genuine interest in supporting young people with complex needs
Ability to commute to Shepperton for a full-time, Monday to Friday role
