Location: East London
Starting salary: Leadership Scale (dependent on experience) £62,148- £67,363 per annum
Contract Type: Temporary to Permanent
Start Date: Immediate
You’re a strong, compassionate leader with a deep understanding of behaviour, inclusion, and the unique needs of vulnerable children. You’ve developed expertise in primary teaching and curriculum leadership and now, you’re looking for a role where your approach will be valued, and your presence will shape the future of an entire school community.
This Deputy Headteacher opportunity offers you the chance to step into a well-established therapeutic SEMH and ASC primary setting where nurture, care, and consistency are the foundation of everything they do.
The Role
Working alongside a highly respected and long-standing Headteacher, you’ll provide leadership across the school with a focus on primary curriculum, teaching and learning, and behavioural and emotional development.
This school offers a genuinely therapeutic model, rooted in relational practice, and is known for its holistic support for children with SEMH and autism. You’ll lead with clarity and compassion, building on the strong foundations already in place.
This post has come about due to the last DHT moving into a more senior role within the organisation. Due to the immediate need, the senior team is looking to interview at your earliest convenience to start the onboarding process to their permanent SLT.
What you’ll bring:
Proven experience in primary curriculum leadership and school improvement
Resilience and confidence in supporting children with SEMH, ASC, and complex needs
A calm, consistent approach to behaviour and staff development
Ability to lead by example and build trust across a multidisciplinary team
Experience in a specialist setting is ideal, but mainstream leaders with strong SEND understanding are warmly welcomed
Whether you're an experienced SEND leader or a senior leader in a mainstream setting with significant SEMH exposure, this role offers the rare opportunity to help shape a therapeutic learning environment for children who need consistency, empathy, and leadership that inspires hope.

Primary SEN Teacher
Chelmsford
Essex
M1 - UPS3
As a Primary Teacher you already know the challenges presented by educating younger minds. The journey is as much social as academic. When that journey is within a specialist SEN school, those challenges are magnified, yet the satisfaction and emotional reward from achievement are also far greater.
This school recognises that you have the greatest impact on the pupils. Your classroom is your classroom. The set up, the TA structure; all down to you. You can shape your lessons personally to fit student requirements. After all, you know best. As you grow in the role, embracing greater accountability, your influence naturally also grows.
The teaching team coming together at this exceptional school are all passionate about getting the children engaged in learning. Creating experiences and learning methods that will support them throughout their lives. Yes it is hard work, yet when you are working with colleagues who all focus on building rapport and trust amongst students as well as each other, the reward is evident.
Supporting children all through Primary and Secondary, there is a strong bond between the teaching team. TA support is plentiful and members of the Senior Leadership Team are handpicked to support in each area.
This is a purpose built SEMH school with extensive resources and a tailored environment to support the curriculum. As you arrive, a bright spacious atrium reception welcomes you. It is obvious the school has been designed to deliver an inspiring environment for both pupils and the teaching teams. The school is currently building to capacity, yet even when full, the model of very small classes will be maintained. The classes themselves are ability based, giving a greater opportunity for shared progress amongst the students.
The headteacher is focussed on supporting each member of staff with a CPD structure that keeps you learning and developing in your own role. She listens to her teams and knows what is needed when. As the school continues to build to its full potential, so will the teaching teams who are currently shaping the environment.
If you are transitioning from a mainstream environment or and ECT, the school will of course guide you through SEN training and tailoring curriculums as appropriate.
With easy access to this school in Chelmsford, including on-site parking, the commute is a breeze whichever direction you are coming from.
If this opportunity fits with your current career circumstances and ambition, please contact Harry at Parker Smith Inclusiuon to discuss how we can guide and advise you going forward. Whether it is this specific role or other SEND teaching opportunities, we can help you find the right next step for your career.
