Based on the main site, in our all-age generic special school, Climb is our pathway for learners with moderate to severe learning difficulties, often alongside autism, communication needs, sensory profiles or SEMH. Our curriculum has a semi-formal approach, is ambitious, and adaptable – and so are our teachers. If you’re motivated by meaningful progress, thrive in a creative, supportive team, and are excited to teach subjects in ways that truly reach learners, we’d love to hear from you.

Whether you’re experienced in specialist settings or looking to make the leap into SEND, we’ll offer you:
✨ A strong, experienced team to support your journey
✨ Opportunities to innovate and personalise the curriculum
✨ Access to therapies, sensory spaces, and specialist training
✨ A school culture that celebrates every small step forward

Join us, and help our learners Climb – academically, socially, emotionally and beyond. So, if you’re ready to teach in a place where relationships come first, where barriers are broken, and where the joy of learning is everywhere – come climb with us. Your next adventure starts here.
