Class Teacher job summary

We are seeking an enthusiastic and dedicated SEND Teacher to deliver high-quality teaching and learning for pupils with a range of special educational needs and disabilities. The successful candidate will create engaging, inclusive learning experiences that promote communication, independence, and well-being.

We offer excellent opportunities for professional development and career progression, with access to specialist training, mentoring, and collaboration across our family of schools. You will be joining a supportive, child-centred Trust committed to staff development and the highest standards of education and care.

Moorcroft School is a secondary school for students between 11 and 19 years old with severe learning disabilities (SLD), profound and multiple learning disabilities (PMLD) and autistic spectrum disorders (ASD). Some of the students may also have additional sensory or physical impairments or challenging behaviour. At Moorcroft we aim to provide the best possible education outcomes for our students.

Due to the needs of our students, although our students are of secondary age, our curriculum is more aligned with an EYFS / KS1 level and so we welcome both primary and secondary practitioners to apply.

Moorcroft School pupils attend school at one of two specialist locations. Our main school site in Hillingdon or at the Eden Pinkwell Satellite based at Pinkwell School in Hayes.

All our students have a personalised learning programme to help them achieve their best. We use this to adapt our curriculum to meet their individual needs.

Moorcroft School is part of the Eden Academy Trust, a family of special schools working together within one Multi Academy Trust. Through careful and deliberate growth, the Trust has developed a community of schools that collaborate to integrate the best educational and therapeutic practices.

Together, they create an organisation that places children at the heart of everything it does. A place where parents and carers can look to the future with optimism and confidence, and where staff feel their skills and careers are nurtured and developed like nowhere else.

Further information about the school can be found on our website: http://moorcroftschool.co.uk

We would encourage all interested candidates to come and visit our wonderful school.

If you would like to discuss this post further or to visit the school please contact Ellie Hodgkinson (Head) at info@moorcroftschool.co.uk

Safeguarding

The Trust is fully committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. We expect all staff and volunteers to uphold this commitment. The successful candidate will be subject to an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check.

At Eden Academy Trust, we value and actively embrace diversity. We believe that a diverse school community strengthens learning, enriches experiences, and helps every child thrive.

Across our schools, we are committed to creating a culture where all individuals regardless of race, ethnicity, religion, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, or background are respected, represented, and supported.

We understand the role of inclusive education in preparing young people for a complex and diverse society. We challenge discrimination, recognise and celebrate difference, and work continuously to promote equity and opportunity in everything we do.

Our commitment to inclusion runs through our curriculum, our staffing and leadership, our policies, and our day-to-day interactions. We strive to practise cultural humility, anti-racism, and equitable approaches that meet the needs of all our pupils.
