Primary/KS3 SEND Teacher

We are

currently seeking an experienced Primary or SEND specialist teacher to join our

team. This role involves planning and delivering ambitious, well-sequenced

learning, adapting a mainstream KS2/KS3 curriculum for autistic students,

across all subjects, to enable them to eventually go on to achieve academic

success at KS4. Flexibility and the ability to work

collaboratively with colleagues are key to success, and this role may well suit

someone who is looking to further develop their pedagogy in a creative,

non-mainstream environment.

Our focus on

social communication and independence, alongside academic success, make

Newhaven School an exceptionally supportive environment in which young people

can overcome barriers to learning. Our highly-professional staff team are

committed to enabling students to gain academic success, a keen sense of right

and wrong, and to recognize their responsibilities as fully participating

members of society. Our overarching aim is for all students to achieve

fulfilling and ambitious destinations when they leave Newhaven School.

The ideal candidate will:

Be an outstanding classroom practitioner with

the ability to inspire others and have a commitment to high

standards.

Have strong adaptive teaching and ability to

teach a wide range of curriculum areas.

Have a proven record of good academic results

with students of all abilities.

Have a practical understanding that behaviour

is communication and be able to motivate students who may display

extremely challenging behaviour.

Display innovation and an ability to inspire

students with a range of needs.

Able to contribute to a wider curriculum

development within a SEND context and work collegiately to support the

teaching of a broad and balanced curriculum.

Have a passion and enthusiasm about making a

positive difference in the lives of students with SEND, to ensure personal

and academic growth.
