Working as an SEMH Teacher takes a special type of person, they require resilience, composure, creativity, consistency and the ability to adapt quickly.

Classes will consist of maximum 8 students with support staff on hand, learning will consist of practical and/or written lesson plans, you need to be creative and engaging to keep the children's attention.

Strong understanding of trauma-informed approaches and behaviour support
Ability to build positive, trusting relationships with students who may be anxious, disengaged, or dysregulated

What We Offer:
A supportive and experienced multidisciplinary team
Ongoing CPD including training in behaviour management and trauma-informed practice
A nurturing working environment focused on staff well-being
The chance to make a lasting impact on young lives
