SENCO Full or Part-time Barnet Primary School Salary: £53,261 - £57,716 Full or Part time (4 days minimum) January start preferred We are delighted to be supporting a large North London primary school seeking an experienced SENCO to take on what can only be described as a big, important, meaningful role. This is a very high-needs school where 26% of pupils are on the SEN register. There is an ARP of six children currently awaiting specialist placements. There are 18 EHCPs, and more applications waiting to be made. This is not a ticking-boxes SENCO role. This is leadership. This is advocacy. This is impact. And crucially, you will not be doing it alone. You will have a full-time SENCO Assistant, a dedicated SENCO Administrator, a highly experienced Inclusion Lead providing a thorough handover, and an SLT who genuinely live their values. Nobody is expected to know everything. Everybody is supported. This school sits in a community facing real challenges, deprivation, instability, and barriers that begin outside the school gates. Yet inside the building you will find warmth, humour, consistency and a team who show up every single day because they believe in giving children the best start in life. This is a place that values strong relationships. Negativity is gently drowned out by positivity. Families who were once hard to reach now come through the gates. Structures are strong. Boundaries are clear. And the staff genuinely care for each other. You might already be an established SENCO looking for a role that matters. You might be a senior teacher with deep SEND systems knowledge ready to step up. Either way, you will be someone who can bring clarity to systems, confidence to staff and fairness to children who deserve the very best. If you feel ready to take on a SENCO role with meaning, one that asks much of you but gives back even more, we would love to speak with you. Please contact Emilie by emailing emilie@psinclusion.co.uk or calling 020 3011 4848.

Strive to provide a fresh start for young people, offering a calm, nurturing and creative environment where they are met with understanding and respect, and supported in building toward a positive future. To support the diverse needs of their pupils, they offer flexible learning pathways (full-time, part-time, and blended learning) and small class sizes, ensuring each student receives personalised attention and support. Beyond academics, prioritise holistic development — social, emotional, and mental well-being — with an emphasis on personal and social growth embedded across our curriculum. The ethos is summed up in: “Every Young Life Matters.” Committed to giving every learner — regardless of background or previous difficulties — equal opportunities to succeed academically, socially, and emotionally. About the Role They are seeking a resilient, compassionate, and adaptable Respite Teacher to join their team. In this role, you will deliver lessons across English, Maths, Science, PSHE, Humanities, and PE, while embedding personal and social development within every lesson.

You will be supported by a small, dedicated team — including a Teaching Assistant and a Behaviour Mentor — to manage and support student learning and behaviour effectively. Your responsibilities will include: Delivering engaging lessons tailored to individual needs. Embedding social, emotional, and personal development into your teaching. Managing and de-escalating challenging behaviours with empathy, consistency, and professionalism. Building trusting relationships with students, offering stability, care, and positivity. Collaborating with support staff to create a safe, structured, and supportive learning environment. About You We are looking for someone who is: Experienced in managing challenging behaviours, ideally within SEND, alternative provision, or similar contexts. Patient, empathetic, and passionate about working with young people who may have experienced trauma, exclusion, or disruption in their education. Flexible and creative — able to adapt teaching methods and curriculum to meet individual emotional and learning needs. Committed to holistic education — supporting not only academic learning, but personal growth, wellbeing, and social development. Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) is desirable but not essential for the right candidate with strong experience in behavioural support and working with excluded or vulnerable students. Why Join Us? Be part of a small, dedicated team where your contribution genuinely matters and your work directly impacts young lives. Work within a supportive, flexible, and caring school ethos — where education adapts to the student, not the other way around. Help provide a second chance to young people who’ve been let down by mainstream education. Help build not just academic understanding, but confidence, wellbeing, and hope for the future If you believe you have the resilience, passion, and commitment to join us — and you’re ready to make a genuine difference — we would love to hear from you.
