About the Role

Envision Education is currently looking for a passionate and dedicated SEND Primary Teacher to join a specialist education setting in West London to support pupils with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND).

This is an excellent opportunity for an enthusiastic teacher who is committed to inclusive education and making a meaningful difference in children’s lives. You will play a key role in creating a positive, engaging and supportive learning environment where every pupil is encouraged to develop their skills, build confidence, and reach their full potential.

We are looking for a teacher who understands that every child learns differently and can adapt their teaching to meet a range of individual needs, abilities and learning styles.

The Role

As a SEND Primary Teacher, you will be responsible for planning and delivering engaging lessons across the primary curriculum, ensuring learning is accessible, stimulating and tailored to each pupil’s individual needs.

You will work collaboratively with teaching assistants, support staff, and the wider school team to provide appropriate academic, social and emotional support. You will also help establish a structured and nurturing classroom environment where pupils feel safe, valued, and motivated to learn.

Key Responsibilities

• Plan and deliver engaging lessons across the primary curriculum, adapting content to suit individual learning needs.
• Differentiate teaching methods, activities and resources to support pupils with a range of SEND.
• Create a safe, inclusive and stimulating classroom environment that encourages participation and independence.
• Build positive, trusting relationships with pupils, promoting confidence, communication and engagement.
• Monitor pupil progress, assess learning and provide appropriate feedback to support development.
• Promote positive behaviour through consistent expectations, encouragement, and effective classroom management.
• Work closely with teaching assistants, support staff and other professionals to ensure pupils receive appropriate support.
• Support pupils' academic, social, emotional, and personal development.
• Maintain accurate records of pupil progress, achievements, and individual learning needs.
• Contribute positively to the wider school community, working in partnership with colleagues and, where appropriate, parents and carers.

• Experience working with pupils with SEND in the UK, or a genuine interest in developing a career in specialist education.
• The ability to adapt lessons and resources to accommodate different abilities, learning styles and individual needs.
• Strong classroom management skills and the ability to establish clear, consistent expectations.
• Excellent communication, organizational, and interpersonal skills.
• A patient, resilient and consistent approach to supporting pupils.
• A creative and enthusiastic attitude towards teaching and learning.
• A genuine passion for helping children overcome barriers to learning and achieve their full potential.

• The right to work in the UK.
• A willingness to undergo an enhanced DBS check and all required pre-employment safeguarding checks.
