Teacher job summary

Company Description

The Beckmead Trust believes in providing every young person with the best possible education and opportunities. Our family of schools, located in the SE, The Flagship School is soon moving into its purpose-built premises. Beckmead is built on a foundation of community, social justice and a support network for children with special educational needs.


Role Description

This is a full-time, on-site role as a Teacher. Teachers will be responsible for lesson planning, delivering high-quality education, effectively communicating with students and colleagues, and promoting a positive learning environment. The role will involve working closely with parents, carers, and agencies to ensure the holistic development of our students.


Moving from Mainstream?


Note from Headteacher:

As someone who transitioned from mainstream education, I've discovered profound satisfaction in special education. Focusing on individual student needs creates a genuinely personalised and impactful teaching experience. I invite fellow educators to consider the unique benefits of joining us in this rewarding field.


One of the most significant advantages is the opportunity for individualised instruction. Tailoring teaching to each student's strengths and needs fosters meaningful engagement and academic progress. Without the pressures of standardised testing, educators can focus on cultivating a love for learning through creative and adaptive methods. In this environment, our role is to make a slight difference every day.


Additionally, special education offers a tangible impact. Witnessing students overcome challenges and achieve personal milestones provides deep professional fulfilment. The collaborative partnerships we form—working closely with a dedicated team, including other professionals and families—ensure a holistic approach to student success.


Moreover, special education's dynamic nature fosters ongoing professional growth and a continuous learning journey. I encourage those seeking a career where their passion for teaching directly translates into positive student outcomes to explore this fulfilling path. We currently have roles available at two brand-new schools in Essex. Please don't hesitate to reach out to me. My experience in special education has been transformative, and it can be equally rewarding for you.
