Are you a passionate SEND Teacher looking to make a genuine difference in the lives of children and young people with complex needs?

Parker Smith Inclusion is working with a specialist SEND school in North London to recruit a dedicated and enthusiastic SEND Teacher to join their team.

This is a fantastic opportunity for a teacher who is passionate about inclusive education and wants to work in a supportive, nurturing environment where every pupil is encouraged to achieve their full potential.

The school supports children and young people with a range of complex special educational needs, including Profound and Multiple Learning Difficulties (PMLD), Severe Learning Difficulties (SLD), and moderate to severe autism, alongside associated learning and communication difficulties.

The Role

As a SEND Teacher, you will deliver creative, engaging and highly differentiated lessons tailored to the individual needs of your pupils. You will play an important role in developing communication, independence, functional learning skills and confidence, celebrating every achievement along the way.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Planning and delivering engaging, personalised lessons for pupils with complex SEND.

• Creating a calm, nurturing and inclusive classroom environment.

• Supporting pupils to develop communication, independence and essential life skills.

• Assessing individual learning needs and monitoring pupil progress.

• Leading and supporting teaching assistants and other classroom support staff.

• Working collaboratively with families, therapists and other professionals to provide holistic support.

• Developing creative teaching strategies and interventions to help every pupil succeed.

The Ideal Candidate

We would love to hear from teachers who:

• Hold Qualified Teacher Status (QTS).

• Have experience teaching children or young people with SEND.

• Have a strong understanding of autism, PMLD, SLD and complex learning needs.

• Are creative, adaptable and confident in differentiating learning.

• Can lead a classroom team effectively and build positive relationships.

• Have a patient, empathetic and nurturing approach.

• Are passionate about helping pupils develop independence and achieve meaningful progress.

Additional SEND qualifications and experience working with pupils with highly complex needs would be advantageous.
