SEN Teacher – Sixth Form (PMLD / SLD / Autism)
Ealing, North West London
Full-Time - November Start
M1–M6 Inner London
If you’re the kind of teacher who lights up when a young person takes a tiny step that means everything… If you believe sixth form should be a meaningful bridge into adulthood—no matter the level of need—then this is the role where your passion won’t just be welcomed. It will be celebrated.
This specialist SEND school in Ealing has created an environment built on compassion, structure, and purpose. The school supports young people with PMLD, SLD and Autism/ASC in a calm setting where achievement looks different for every learner—but every achievement counts.
The sixth form is now looking for a teacher who wants to shape independence, communication, and confidence for young adults preparing for life beyond school.
You’ll lead a sixth form class of young adults who each experience the world differently—and wonderfully.
