Your new company

An outstanding opportunity has arisen for a passionate and dedicated SEND teacher to join a highly respected Primary School with a specialist provision. This well-established school provides exceptional education and support for pupils aged 4 to 11 with a wide range of special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), including moderate learning difficulties (MLD), autism spectrum conditions (ASC), speech, language and communication needs (SLCN), and complex learning profiles. The school is known for its inclusive ethos, high staff-to-student ratio, and a broad, creative curriculum that promotes academic achievement, life skills, and emotional development. With a strong leadership team and a collaborative, multidisciplinary approach, the school offers a nurturing and structured environment where every student is supported to thrive.

Your new role

Starting in September, this is a full-time SEND teaching role on a temporary basis, with a strong likelihood of becoming permanent for the right candidate. You will be responsible for delivering high-quality, differentiated teaching to small groups of students with diverse learning needs across Key Stages 1 & 2.

• Planning and delivering engaging, accessible lessons tailored to individual EHCPs.

• Creating a positive, inclusive classroom environment that supports emotional wellbeing and academic progress.

• Collaborating with teaching assistants, therapists, and the wider pastoral team.

• Supporting pupils’ communication, independence, and personal development.

What you'll need to succeed

• Qualified Teacher Status (QTS or QTLS).

• Experience working with children or young people with SEND, either in a mainstream or specialist setting.

• A creative, flexible, and nurturing approach to teaching and learning.

• Excellent communication and teamwork skills.

• A DBS on the Update Service or willingness to apply for one through Hays.

• Experience with Makaton, PECS, or other communication strategies is desirable but not essential.

What you'll get in return

• A rewarding opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of young people with SEND.

• A supportive and inclusive school environment with a strong team ethos.

• Ongoing CPD and training opportunities through Hays and the school.

• Competitive daily rate and weekly pay.

• Access to Hays Education benefits, including holiday pay, pension contributions, and a dedicated consultant.
