Are you a qualified teacher looking for a rewarding role where you can make a genuine difference to children and young people with additional needs?We are recruiting SEN Teachers for a specialist school in Leicester, supporting pupils aged 5 to 18 with a range of special educational needs.
Your new school
Your new school is a specialist setting in the Leicestershire countryside, providing bespoke education and support for children and young people with additional needs and EHCPs.
The school places a strong emphasis on pupils' academic, social and emotional development, creating a nurturing environment where young people can feel safe, develop confidence and achieve their potential.
This is an excellent opportunity for a passionate teacher looking to join a setting where relationships, consistency and understanding the individual child are at the heart of education.
Your new role
As an SEN Teacher, you will plan and deliver engaging, accessible lessons tailored to the individual needs and abilities of your pupils.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Planning and delivering creative and differentiated lessons
- Creating a structured, positive and nurturing classroom environment
- Building strong, consistent relationships with pupils
- Supporting pupils' academic, social and emotional development
- Using positive behaviour-management and de-escalation strategies
- Working closely with teaching assistants and the wider pastoral team
- Monitoring progress and adapting teaching to individual learning needs
- Supporting pupils to develop confidence, resilience and independence
You must be able to drive and have access to transport, as travel between sites will be required as part of the role.

To be considered for this opportunity, you will need:
- Qualified Teacher Status (QTS)
- A full UK driving licence and access to your own transport
- A passion for supporting children and young people with SEND
- Strong classroom and behaviour-management skills
- A calm, patient and resilient approach
- The ability to build positive relationships with pupils
