- Deliver high-quality, personalised teaching for pupils across KS2, with a focus on complex needs.
- Plan, adapt, and differentiate engaging lessons to meet EHCP outcomes, developmental milestones, and sensory requirements.

- Collaborate closely with the SENCO, learning support staff, therapists, and families to provide a consistent and effective approach.
- Monitor pupil progress, contribute to reports, and participate in multidisciplinary team meetings.
What We're Looking For:
- Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) or equivalent.
- Experience teaching in an SEN setting (or strong SEN knowledge within a mainstream environment).
- A calm, empathetic, and resilient approach to classroom management.
- Passion for inclusive education and a commitment to nurturing every child's progress.
