About the Role

SEND Teacher - Secondary 

  • Permanent – September Start

  • Hillingdon, West London

  • SEND Teaching Position - ASC, MLD, Complex Needs, SEMH and SLCN 
  • Paid MPS

We are currently working alongside a SEND secondary school, they have students from yr 7 - yr 13 with moderate to severe learning difficulties and a range of complex needs, including autism.

The school believes in providing a nurturing and inclusive environment where every learner is valued, challenged, and empowered to achieve their potential.

This role isn't about following a rigid curriculum. It’s about meeting students where they are and guiding them forward at their own pace. Some days, that might mean working through emotions before tackling a maths lesson. Other days, it’s celebrating a small but significant breakthrough—a child staying in class for the full session, taking part in group activities, or expressing how they feel.

If you’re looking for a teaching role where you can genuinely change lives, this could be it. Be part of this school’s next chapter as they grow in September.

What This School Offers You

  • A Purpose-Driven Environment – Every aspect of the school is built around the needs of students with SEND, from small class sizes to therapeutic support.
  • A Growing, Supportive Team –  The leadership team is committed to giving staff the freedom and support to try new approaches and make a real difference.
  • Career Growth & Development –. Whether you’re looking to progress into leadership or specialise further, this is the place to grow.

Who They’re Looking For

  • A qualified teacher (QTS/QTLS) with a passion for SEND education
  • An unqualified teacher with proven experience teaching children with Autism and SEMH
  • Someone who values relationships over rigid teaching methods
  • A teacher who understands that progress comes in many forms, not just academic grades

If you’re looking for a teaching role where you can genuinely change lives, this could be it. Be part of this school’s next chapter as they grow in September.
