SEN Programme Coordinator in Abingdon

Are you a qualified teacher with SEN experience? Have you managed a team? Would you relish the chance to escape the constraints of a classroom environment? Do your colleagues describe you as open and amiable? Or are you a person with resilience? If you are all of the above, then you would be an ideal candidate for this role!

You will lead a team of Community Teaching Facilitators who work 1:1 and 2:1 with young people who have autism, a learning disability and/or mental health challenges. We provide a bespoke curriculum for each student, working with them at home, in the community, or via our College partnerships across the area. We teach the life skills each young person will need as they grow to adulthood, focusing on each student's particular interests and ambitions.

You will manage the planning and implementation of the curriculum, ensuring a full educational programme is developed for each young person, meeting their learning, social, emotional and developmental needs. You will be based at Abingdon in Oxford; this is a full-time role, 52 weeks a year, working 38 hours a week.

What we need from you:

• You must be a Level 5 qualified teacher with management experience and have worked with children or young people who have complex needs.
• You'll be a driver with your own transport, as learners are based around the area.

About us:

No Limits is part of the national charity MacIntyre. We provide bespoke integrated education and support programmes for young people with autism and/or a learning disability.

These teams, along with your Programme Manager, will provide you with opportunities to learn and develop professionally.
