• Are you an experienced SEND EYFS Teacher who believes that meaningful progress looks different for every child?
• Can you turn sensory exploration, purposeful play and everyday experiences into exciting learning opportunities?
• Do you have the creativity, patience and specialist knowledge to help children with complex needs develop their communication, independence and confidence?

TeacherActive is working with a specialist SEND setting in the DL8 area that provides highly personalised education for children with significant and complex learning difficulties. The setting has a strong focus on understanding the whole child, creating secure relationships and providing an engaging environment where individual success is recognised and celebrated.

This is an exciting full-time SEND EYFS Teacher opportunity working with vulnerable children aged 3-5, all of whom have an EHCP and require education built around their individual developmental needs.

This is a role where topics can genuinely be brought to life.

• Qualified Teacher Status (QTS)
• Strong knowledge of EYFS pedagogy and child development
• Experience teaching children with SEND, complex needs and EHCPs
• Confidence delivering sensory, play-based and highly differentiated learning
