• Qualified teacher status (QTS) or equivalent, with a specialism in SEN or autism, and experience working with students with autism.
• A passion for inclusive education, with a proactive approach to problem-solving and a genuine desire to make a difference.

Why Join Us?

• A Unique Opportunity to work in a truly inclusive environment, blending specialist provision with mainstream education.
• Supportive Team of dedicated staff committed to student success.
• Professional Development opportunities to grow your career and make a lasting impact.

The Endeavour Centre is more than just a resource provision it’s a place where we believe every student deserves the chance to realise their potential, and we’re looking for an SEN Teacher who shares this belief.
