What skills and experience we're looking for

Qualifications

  • Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) in the UK.
  • National Award for Special Educational Needs Coordination (NASENCo)—or a commitment to undertake the qualification within the first 2 years. The school would support the right candidate through this process.

Experience & Knowledge

  • Successful teaching experience across the primary age range.
  • Deep understanding of the SEND Code of Practice and statutory SEND regulations in England.
  • Experience working effectively with children with diverse needs, including ASD, SEMH, and complex learning difficulties.

Skills & Personal Attributes

  • Excellent communication, empathy, and interpersonal skills for liaising with families and external agencies.
  • Strong organisational skills to manage competing priorities in a one-form entry setting.
  • Resilience and a proactive, solution-focused approach to problem-solving.

Note: As a one-form entry school, this role will likely involve cross-school collaboration and a highly hands-on approach to both leadership and day-to-day pastoral care. Responsibilities are subject to regular review in line with the needs of the school.
