English Teacher - SEMH Specialist Setting

Location: Boston, Lincolnshire

Salary: MPS/UPS + SEN Allowance

Contract Type: Full-time, Permanent

Are you a passionate English teacher ready to make a real impact in the lives of young people with Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH) needs? We are seeking a dedicated English specialist to join a nurturing and structured therapeutic education setting in the Boston area.

This is not your average classroom. Here, every day brings fresh challenges and meaningful breakthroughs. The school caters to children and young people who have experienced trauma, disrupted education, or behavioural challenges. Lessons are taught in small groups, allowing you to develop strong relationships with pupils and tailor your teaching to individual learning styles and emotional needs.

The role involves:

• Delivering a creative and engaging English curriculum to KS3 and KS4 pupils.
• Working closely with pastoral and therapeutic staff to support holistic student development.
• Promoting literacy, confidence, and self-expression in students with complex needs.
• Contributing to a calm, safe, and consistent learning environment.

You will need:

• QTS or QTLS status.
• Proven experience working with SEMH students or within an alternative provision setting.
• A resilient, empathetic and adaptable approach to teaching.
• A passion for supporting vulnerable learners and helping them thrive.

If you’re ready to teach with purpose, inspire with empathy and make a real difference, we want to hear from you.
