Do you have a passion for making education accessible and inspiring for every child? Are you ready to create meaningful change for children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) and Emotionally-based School Avoidance (EBSA)? Melksham House School is a brand new school (opened September 2025), looking for compassionate and dynamic teachers to join our dedicated team.


About the Role:

As a Teacher at Melksham House School, you’ll play a pivotal role in nurturing the academic, social, and emotional development of children with SEND. Working closely with a supportive multidisciplinary team, you will deliver personalized, engaging lessons that cater to the unique needs of each learner.


Key Responsibilities:

  • Plan, deliver, and evaluate creative and differentiated lessons tailored to the needs outlined in students’ EHCPs.
  • Foster an inclusive and positive learning environment where every child feels valued and supported.
  • Collaborate with teaching assistants, therapists, and the SENDCo to implement individualized support plans.
  • Track student progress, adapting teaching strategies to ensure all children reach their full potential.
  • Work in partnership with families to ensure a cohesive approach to education and well-being.
