SEN Teacher

You will be a passionate teacher and a great communicator, as comfortable talking to pupils and young people as you are with contributing to the school's vision and direction. Our schools are unique environments, each one having its own special atmosphere and range of opportunities and resources. Our Teachers enjoy becoming part of their school's 'family', exploring the potential of the building and environment and getting to know the brilliant pupils and young people in our care. You will enjoy building these caring relationships as well as liaising with fellow professionals, whether they are colleagues in the same school or they work in the pupil's previous educational establishments. You will have excellent written English skills too, along with a passion for working in collaboration with other members of our multidisciplinary team, sharing information in both formal and informal situations.
