As the PSHE Teacher, you will:

  • Plan and deliver engaging PSHE lessons tailored to students with additional learning needs

  • Teach key topics including wellbeing, relationships, health, independence, and preparing for adulthood

  • Adapt lessons to support students with moderate learning difficulties, autism and communication needs

  • Patient, empathetic and committed to supporting students with additional needs

  • Able to deliver creative and accessible lessons

  • A strong communicator who can build positive relationships with students and staff

Why Join?

  • A rewarding role supporting young people to develop essential life skills

  • A collaborative and supportive staff team

  • Opportunities for professional development and training in SEN education
