Safeguarding & Prevent
Location: Snodland Area, Kent
Start Date: April (Summer Term)
Contract: Full-time
Do you feel like your current mainstream setting doesn't allow you enough time to truly connect with your students? Are you looking for a role where you can focus on individual progress rather than just hitting generic targets?
We are looking for an empathetic, creative educator to join our "Wallaby Class" this April. Whether you are an experienced SEN specialist or a passionate mainstream teacher looking to transition into a specialist setting, we want to hear from you.
Why This Role is Different
We don't just "do" inclusion; we live it. Our Specialist Resource Provision (SRP) holds Advanced Status from the National Autistic Society, making us one of the most respected settings in the country.
In this role, you aren't on an island. You are part of a high-functioning team where:
Integration is Key: Every child belongs to both your class and a mainstream class. You are the bridge that makes their education work.
The Pace is Personal: You have the freedom to deliver a curriculum that focuses on communication, emotional literacy, and sensory needs.
Growth is Guaranteed: You will work alongside a Lead Teacher and a dedicated team of HLTAs/TAs, receiving world-class training in ASD best practices.
The Day-to-Day
You'll be the champion for a small group of learners with Autism, some of whom are non-verbal. Your toolkit will include:
Creative Lesson Planning: Designing "Wallaby Class" sessions that are sensory-rich and engaging.
Communication Mastery: Using tools like PECS and Makaton to give a voice to every child.
Holistic Support: Teaching the "Zones of Regulation" and leading sensory circuits to help pupils navigate their world.
Who Are You?
We value attitude and potential as much as specific SEN qualifications. We invite applications from:
Teachers with QTS/QTLS who have a heart for SEN but perhaps haven't worked in a specialist provision yet.
Highly experienced Unqualified Teachers who have spent years in ASD or communication-based roles and are looking for a more formal teaching responsibility.
Collaborators who can work with mainstream colleagues to ensure our pupils thrive in every corner of the school.
The Rewards
Professional Pedigree: Boost your CV by working in a nationally recognised, "Advanced Status" environment.
Supportive Trust: Benefit from a wider network of schools and career progression opportunities.
Real Impact: Experience the "unbelievable" progress that parents regularly praise us for.
Start Your New Chapter This April
If you have the passion, we have the training. If you're ready to see the "unbelievable" progress your teaching can spark, get in touch today.
