Are you a creative, adaptable teacher who thrives in a nurturing, specialist environment? We are seeking a committed practitioner to join our small, supportive secondary team working with pupils aged 11-16 who have a range of social communication needs, including Autism and ADHD. Our setting provides small class sizes, a high level of pastoral care, and a highly personalised approach to learning for an all-male cohort.

About the Role

This is an exciting opportunity for a teacher who can deliver a range of non-core subjects across Key Stage 3 and Key Stage 4, tailoring lessons to meet the needs, abilities, and interests of each learner. You will work closely with a skilled team of Teaching Assistants and will be responsible for planning meaningful, engaging lessons that allow TAs to effectively lead small-group sessions to reinforce understanding and develop key skills.

What We're Looking For

We welcome applicants from a range of subject specialisms. You should bring:

• A flexible, innovative approach to teaching
• Experience of supporting pupils with SEND (particularly Autism and ADHD)
• Strong behaviour regulation and relationship-building skills
• The ability to differentiate creatively for very small groups
• Confidence in planning for TAs to deliver impactful small-group work
• A commitment to promoting independence, emotional wellbeing, and progress

What We Offer

• Exceptionally small classes and a supportive staffing ratio
• A calm, structured environment designed around pupils' individual needs
• Ongoing professional development in specialist SEND practice
• A friendly, collaborative team who are passionate about making a difference
