Job Description

SEND Teacher | Birmingham

Let's look past the job title. You aren't just a "Teacher" here. You are a navigator for students who find the traditional world a little too loud, too fast, or too rigid. If you believe neurodiversity is a strength to be unlocked rather than a box to be checked, this is your classroom.

Tradewind Recruitment is seeking a versatile SEND Teacher for a high-impact, Full-Time, Temp-to-Perm role in Birmingham. Whether your heart is in early intervention or preparing young adults for independence, we have a desk waiting for you.


What makes this role different?

  • The Setting: A dynamic Birmingham specialist school catering to learners across all key stages. You get to see the full spectrum of growth-from first words to first jobs.

  • The Pay: £168.81 - £232.56 per day (MPS equivalent). We skip the guesswork and pay you for your expertise from day one.

  • The Learners: You'll be supporting a vibrant community with ASD, MLD, SLCN, and Global Development Delay, tailoring your approach to meet them exactly where they are.


What You'll Actually Be Doing:

  • Curriculum Crafting: Delivering the National Curriculum with the extreme flexibility that SEMH and complex needs require.

  • Life-Ready Learning: Using modern facilities to bridge the gap between academics and essential life skills.

  • Adapting on the Fly: Switching your teaching style mid-lesson because a student's "learning trajectory" just shifted.


The Essentials (Requirements):

  • A "SEND Spark": A deep-seated interest in Special Educational Needs across various age groups.

  • Instinct: We value Qualified Teachers (QTS), ECTs, and Unqualified Teachers with the right passion. The school will support your formal qualifications if the "spark" is there.

  • The Vibe: Resilience is mandatory; kindness is non-negotiable.

  • Clearance: An Enhanced DBS on the Update Service (or we can help you get a fresh one).


Why Tradewind? (The Meta Perks)

  • Thea Fraser: You aren't sending your CV into a black hole. You have a dedicated Consultant in Birmingham fighting for your best interests.

  • Professional Armor: Access to 2,500+ free CPD courses to keep you at the top of your game.

  • Referral Bonus: Know someone as good as you? Tell us, and once they're placed, you get £100.
