Job description

Luma Education Recruitment is working with a specialist education provider in Totnes to recruit a passionate and adaptable Teacher to join their dedicated team.

This is an excellent opportunity for teachers from a Primary, Secondary, SEND, Mainstream or Alternative Provision background who are looking for a more personalised approach to education.

The setting is passionate about its pupils and their outcomes, creating a supportive environment where young people can develop academically, socially and personally.

You don't need to have previous SEND experience. This role could be particularly well suited to a mainstream teacher looking to explore a different style of teaching, with smaller groups, bespoke learning and greater opportunities to build meaningful relationships with pupils.

The Role

You will teach small groups of pupils, delivering personalised, project-based learning aligned with individual EHCP outcomes and learning needs.

Working closely with Education Support Workers and Teaching Assistants, you will create engaging learning experiences that help pupils develop confidence, independence and essential skills.

The setting is based in a lovely location in Totnes, Devon, and offers an opportunity to make a genuine difference to pupils who may have found traditional education challenging.

Key Responsibilities

• Plan and deliver engaging lessons for small groups.
• Develop creative, project-based learning activities.
• Align teaching with pupils' EHCP outcomes and individual targets.
• Adapt lessons and resources to meet individual needs.
• Monitor and record pupil progress.
• Build positive relationships with pupils.
• Promote confidence, independence and resilience.
• Work closely with Education Support Workers and Teaching Assistants.
• Support pupils' academic, social and emotional development.
• Maintain high expectations and promote positive behaviour.

Who We're Looking For

• Primary education
• Secondary education

• Full UK driving licence and access to your own vehicle - essential due to the location.
• Enhanced DBS clearance, or willingness to obtain one.

SEND or specialist education experience is desirable but not essential. Support will be available for teachers transitioning from mainstream education.

Why Consider This Role

• Small class groups and personalised teaching.
• Creative, project-based learning.
• Teaching aligned with individual EHCP outcomes.
• Supportive specialist education environment.
• Close collaboration with Education Support Workers and Teaching Assistants.
