We are looking to recruit a specialist SEND Teacher to lead our new specialist resource provision in September 2026.

This is an exciting opportunity for a teacher passionate about SEND to come and work with children in our school with additional needs. The resource base will support a number of pupils with a variety of needs, with and without EHCPs.

We are looking for a teacher who is nurturing and has the skill set and expertise to educate in a way that matches the children's needs.

This is a new provision for our school, giving you the opportunity to grow and develop, alongside skilled TAs delivering targeted interventions.

Coleshill C of E Primary School is a two form entry primary, inspected by Ofsted as Good in February 2022, with a flourishing nursery taking children from two years old.

The school is part of the Birmingham Diocesan Multi-Academy Trust, a dynamic and supportive MAT with the vision: "Clothed in LOVE (Colossians 3:14) we are a united family of schools serving our communities and helping ALL to flourish." BDMAT understand the importance of investment in people, including providing exceptional support for teachers at all stages of their career. As a MAT, we have a strong network of 19 schools in the region.

We believe our school should be a place where we all want to be - where our strong values are lived out by everyone within school, from our well behaved children who want to learn, to our dedicated colleagues who are as committed to quality first teaching as you are.

Our school stands at the heart of the community it serves, and benefits from extensive open space and an ongoing programme of investment in the grounds and buildings. Our easily accessible location makes commuting from Birmingham, Coventry, Nuneaton, Tamworth, Lichfield and the surrounding areas simple.

As part of the team you will be supported by colleagues whilst also enjoying the autonomy to bring your own unique experiences to the classroom. We understand the importance of the broad and deep learning opportunities that allow children to engage with their learning and flourish. Music and sport in particular are our passions - we look forward to hearing about yours.

The successful candidate will:

Be committed to promoting our Christian distinctiveness.

Be willing to take advantage of training opportunities that allow you to further develop your skills.

Have enthusiasm, drive and commitment to the development of excellence.

Be committed to creating a nurturing environment that stimulates positive behaviour and well-being.

Share our vision for outstanding primary school practice and development.

Be an excellent team player with the highest expectations of themselves.

Be involved in all aspects of school life.

We can offer you:

A committed and collaborative Senior Leadership Team, Local Academy Board and Multi-Academy Trust.

Teaching and support staff colleagues with high expectations of behaviour, learning and personal development.

A caring culture with a commitment to providing the best for our children, including pastoral support based on a restorative approach.

Employee schemes and a supportive environment to help ensure positive wellbeing for all.

As a Main Pay Range Teacher you are required to be competent in all elements of the Teacher Standards, to discharge the Teachers Responsibilities as set out in the Contractual Framework for Teachers of the School Teachers Pay and Conditions Document and to act in accordance with the School and BDMAT’s ethos, policies and practices, under the direction of the Headteacher.
