Newfield

School is an impressive, well-resourced special school in Blackburn,

Lancashire, providing high-quality specialist education, care and therapy for

children and young people aged 4-19 with a wide range of needs, including

autism, PMLD, SLD, complex medical needs, sensory impairments and physical

disabilities.

The post provides

an excellent opportunity for a teacher who is interested in working in a

specialist setting and offers exciting opportunities for professional

development and personal growth in support of our vision of lifelong learning for all.

At Newfield,

we believe every child deserves to feel safe, understood and successful. We are

looking for an exceptional teacher to join our values-led school community

built on high expectations, calm consistency and a deep commitment to children.

Our vision is

to create a school where children thrive because adults work relationally,

think carefully and act with clarity, dignity and purpose. Our mission is to

give every child the education they deserve - through trust, structure,

ambition and unwavering care.

We believe

that children learn best when they are well regulated, well supported and

surrounded by adults who hold high expectations with warmth, clarity and

consistency. Our approach is rooted in the understanding that behaviour is

communication, relationships matter, and learning must be built on trust,

safety and belonging.

We are

building a school where values are lived in practice every day. We want staff

who are reflective, resilient and committed to improving outcomes for children

with additional needs. We are looking for professionals who value teamwork,

embrace challenge, and believe that great teaching starts with great

relationships.

We welcome

applications from teachers who are creative, passionate and motivated to

deliver high standards in education, and who wish to join our friendly,

supportive and dedicated school community from September 2026.

We are

particularly keen to hear from teachers who:

are passionate about improving

outcomes for children and young people with additional needs

have high expectations and a

strong sense of professional responsibility

can build trusting relationships

with pupils, families and colleagues

understand the importance of

regulation, consistency and relational practice

are reflective, resilient and

committed to continual improvement

want to contribute to a strong

team culture, rather than work in isolation
