Term 1 (September 2025)
Mixed Gender 341 pupils on roll
Specialist SEND Provision Outstanding Ofsted Rating

Are you passionate about teaching Science in a meaningful, impactful way? Join an Outstanding specialist school where every day brings the opportunity to transform young lives.

We are seeking a Science Teacher to join our welcoming and dedicated team for Term 1 starting in September 2025. This is an exciting opportunity to work in a school that caters to pupils with speech, language and communication needs, ASD, and moderate learning difficulties, all within a supportive and structured environment.

Why Join Us?

• Ofsted-rated Outstanding
• A vibrant school community with a real buzz - staff only leave for promotion or retirement
• Small class sizes: 8-12 pupils per class, with 2 TAs for additional support
• Teaching across a range of classes, focusing on our D Group (lower ability)
• Work in a collaborative, innovative team environment

The Role:

• Deliver General Science to students with Complex Needs

• Create engaging and accessible lessons tailored to individual learning needs

• Work closely with TAs and specialist staff in a nurturing, structured setting

What Will Make You Stand Out?

We welcome teachers from all stages in their careers. However, experience teaching students with Complex Needs is essential. For example, if you have around 2 years of teaching experience, it should include substantial time working with pupils with SLCN, ASD, MLD, or similar SEND profiles.

Interview Process:

Due to time constraints, we will be interviewing only (no lesson observation required).
Interested applicants are encouraged to arrange an informal tour and chat via our IAT process.
