Bring History and/or PHSE to Life for Learners Who Need It Most

Are you a creative and committed History and/or PHSE Teacher who believes every child deserves to feel inspired by the past? Whether you're an experienced specialist or an early career teacher passionate about inclusive education, this is a unique opportunity to shape the future of history learning for students with special educational needs.

Join a dynamic and expanding school that supports young people with ADHD, autism, dyslexia, and social, emotional, and behavioural challenges. Rated 'Good' by Ofsted, the school is entering a period of exciting growth; this is your chance to be part of something transformational.

The Role

You’ll deliver engaging and accessible history and/or PHSE lessons to Key Stage 3 and Key Stage 4 learners across two campuses in Great Yarmouth and Lowestoft. With small class sizes, a movement‑based learning philosophy, and strong wraparound support, this is a role where creativity and connection are central to success. Lessons are designed to awaken curiosity, encourage exploration, and make historical concepts relevant and memorable for diverse learners.

Key Responsibilities

• Teach a rich and adaptable History and/or PHSE curriculum that meets a variety of SEN needs.
• Use movement, creativity, and hands‑on approaches to bring history to life.
• Support pupils’ academic, emotional, and social development within a trauma‑informed environment.
• Collaborate closely with clinical, pastoral, and educational teams across both sites.
• Tailor content to individual needs, ensuring progress against EHCP targets.

What Makes This School Stand Out

• A fully creative and flexible curriculum built around curiosity and self‑expression.
• Physical activity embedded into 50% of the school day to support neurodivergent learners.
• A trauma‑informed and non‑restraint approach to behaviour management.
• Small class sizes (maximum 10 students) with high staff‑to‑pupil ratios.
• On‑site therapeutic and pastoral services to meet holistic learner needs.

What We’re Looking For

• Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) or QTLS.
• Experience in mainstream or SEN settings (history teaching preferred).
• Confident in differentiating content for learners with EHCPs and additional needs.
• Ability to build trust and engagement with students who may have struggled in traditional classrooms.
• Full UK driving licence and access to a vehicle (essential for travel between campuses).

What You’ll Gain

• A chance to join a purpose‑driven school focused on growth and inclusion.
• Tailored CPD and professional development opportunities.
• A positive, collaborative school culture that supports staff wellbeing.
• Support from a dedicated Inspire EHC consultant throughout your journey.
• Clear pathways for progression within a forward‑thinking educational community.
