Their focus is on helping every child and young person reach their individual potential, from developing communication and sensory regulation through to independence and essential life skills.
We are looking for a qualified teacher who genuinely wants to make a difference to pupils with additional needs. The successful candidate will be responsible for creating an engaging, structured and inclusive classroom environment, adapting lessons and learning activities to meet a wide range of individual abilities and needs.
The school is a vibrant, supportive and friendly community that values staff who are committed to helping children and young adults lead positive and fulfilling lives.
