SEND Teacher Location: London Borough of Havering Start Date: September 2024 (Permanent) Salary: £36,000 - £54,000 + SEN Allowance Some teaching roles give you little more than a timetable. Others give you purpose, support, and the resources to change lives. This is one of those roles. A highly respected SEN school in Havering is seeking a skilled and passionate SEN teacher to join their team on a permanent basis. If you feel your current role isn’t allowing you to teach in the way you know works best, this is your opportunity to step into a school where your expertise is valued, your voice is heard, and your work makes a tangible difference.

What You’ll Be Doing Engaging and inspiring learners through high expectations and accessible, creative teaching methods. Supporting post-16 students in developing life skills, independence, and confidence. Helping students develop communication strategies and manage behaviours in a way that maximises learning. Taking an analytical approach to tracking progress, ensuring every student has an individualised pathway to success. Collaborating with a skilled team of teachers who share your passion for inclusive education and making a real impact. Who This Role is For A qualified teacher (QTS or equivalent) with experience in SEN settings. Someone who understands that behaviour is communication and can create engaging, structured learning experiences. A teacher who is eager to support post-16 students as they develop functional life skills and prepare for life beyond school. A professional with experience in working with students with complex needs, including Autism, and helping them develop communication and social skills.
