Job description

Launch Your Career in SEN | Secondary Nurture Teacher (Permanent)

Location: Rural Surrey (Caterham / Chaldon area) Salary: Paid to Scale (MPS/UPS) + SEN Allowance Contract: Permanent, Full-Time | Start: Immediate

Are you looking for more than "just a teaching job"? Do you want to become a specialist in one of the most rewarding areas of education?

We are looking for a dynamic, resilient, and forward-thinking Nurture Teacher to join our specialist secondary team. If you are a teacher who prioritises emotional intelligence and "connection before correction," this is where you belong.

The Opportunity

This isn't your average secondary classroom. Our students have Autism (ASC) and associated challenging behaviours, meaning they don't just need a teacher-they need a mentor, a coach, and a steady hand.

• The Nurture Model: You will lead a small group using a primary-style "home-base" approach, providing the stability these students missed in mainstream settings.

• Specialist Mentorship: Work alongside a multidisciplinary team of therapists and SEN experts to master the art of de-escalation and sensory regulation.

• Rapid Professional Growth: Become an expert in ASC and SEMH-skills that are in incredibly high demand across the education sector.

Are You the Right Fit?

• Qualified Teacher Status (QTS): Whether you've just finished your induction or you're looking to pivot, your QTS is essential.

• The "Problem Solver" Mindset: You enjoy the challenge of figuring out what makes a student tick and adapting your lessons to fit them.

• Must be a Driver: Our school is set in a peaceful, rural location-perfect for our students, but it does mean you must have a car and a full license to get here!

• High Empathy, High Resilience: You can stay calm in a storm and celebrate the "small wins" that mean the world to our families.

Why Start Your SEN Journey With Us?

• Full Scale Pay + SEN Allowance: We value your expertise and compensate you accordingly.

• Dedicated Training: We don't just throw you in the deep end; we provide intensive training in specialist ASC strategies.

• A Supportive Tribe: Join a team that looks out for one another and shares the goal of changing lives.
