Descrizione del lavoro

A well-regarded specialist school for pupils with autism in Harringay is looking for an SEN Class Teacher to take a primary class on a long-term basis, with a genuine view to permanent for the right person.

You’ll lead a small class of pupils, all with an EHCP, supported by a team of teaching assistants who know the children well. Class sizes are small, the staffing ratios are high, and the school gives its teachers the time and training to do the job properly.

The setting has an experienced leadership team, an on-site therapy team you’ll work alongside daily, and a strong culture of relational practice. They are looking for someone who wants to build something with them, not just fill a term.

ECTs with SEND experience are welcome to apply.

• Using autism-specific approaches day to day - structured teaching, visual supports, workstations, PECS, Makaton and AAC
• Embedding communication, regulation, independence and life skills across the whole school day
• Tracking progress on [Evidence for Learning / B Squared], writing reports and leading Annual Reviews
• Leading and deploying your class team, and modelling the strategies that work for each child
• Contributing to Positive Behaviour Support plans and taking a calm approach to behaviour
• Working closely with SaLT, OT and the wider therapy team, and building open relationships with families

What we’re looking for

• Qualified Teacher Status - essential
• Experience of teaching pupils with SEND, in a special school, resource base or mainstream primary
• Sound understanding of autism, the SEND Code of Practice and the EHCP process
• Confidence planning for pupils working significantly below age-related expectations
• Calm, patient and resilient, with high expectations and real flexibility in how you get there
• Willingness to train in the school’s physical intervention framework [Team Teach / PROACT-SCIPr] and to support personal care needs
• Enhanced DBS on the Update Service, or willingness to apply for a new one
• Two references covering the last two years of employment

What’s on offer

• Long-term role with a clear route to permanent on Inner London MPS/UPS plus SEN allowance
• Small classes, high ratios and an established, supportive class team
• Excellent autism-specific CPD training.
