• Collaborate with support staff to implement positive behaviour strategies and promote engagement

• Monitor and report on progress, adapting strategies as needed to meet each learner's goals

• Engage families and wider professionals in the review and development of pupil progress

What We're Looking For:

• Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) - essential

• SEN or inclusive teaching experience (preferably within a secondary or specialist setting)

• Confident teaching students with ASC and additional learning needs

• Strong behaviour management and classroom structure strategies

• Reflective, flexible, and collaborative with a commitment to ongoing professional development
