Tradewind Recruitment is currently seeking a passionate and dedicated SEN Maths Teacher to join an expanding specialist school in Northampton. This is an exciting opportunity for an enthusiastic teacher who is committed to making maths accessible, engaging and meaningful for young people with additional learning needs.
The school supports secondary-aged pupils and is continuing to expand its provision, offering a fantastic opportunity to join a growing setting where you can make a genuine difference to pupils' academic progress, confidence and independence.
The Role
As an SEN Maths Teacher, you will be responsible for planning and delivering engaging, differentiated maths lessons to secondary-aged pupils with a range of additional learning needs. You will help pupils develop their mathematical understanding and, importantly, recognise how maths can be applied to everyday situations and future opportunities.
You will be joining a supportive school environment where lessons are adapted to individual abilities, with an emphasis on building confidence, encouraging participation and celebrating progress.
Your responsibilities will include:
Planning and delivering engaging maths lessons tailored to pupils' individual learning needs.
Teaching key mathematical concepts, including numeracy, number skills, calculations, fractions, percentages and problem-solving.
Making maths accessible through practical, interactive and real-life learning activities.
Supporting pupils to develop confidence and independence when working with numbers.
Incorporating functional maths, including budgeting, money management, measurements and understanding time.
Differentiating learning materials and teaching approaches to support a range of abilities.
Monitoring pupil progress and adapting lessons to meet individual learning targets.
Creating a positive, structured and inclusive classroom environment.
Working collaboratively with teaching assistants and the wider school team to support pupil development.
The Ideal Candidate
We are keen to hear from teachers who:
Hold QTS or an equivalent recognised teaching qualification.
Have experience teaching Maths at secondary level.
Have a passion for supporting young people with additional learning needs.
Can adapt their teaching to engage pupils with different abilities and learning styles.
Are patient, creative and confident building positive relationships.
Can make mathematical concepts accessible through practical and real-world examples.
Are committed to supporting both academic achievement and personal development.
Previous experience within SEN, SEMH, ASC or alternative provision would be advantageous, although we would also welcome applications from mainstream secondary Maths teachers looking to transition into specialist education.
What We Offer
Competitive salary of £27,000-£39,000 per annum, depending on experience.
Full-time, temp-to-perm opportunity with the potential to secure a permanent position.
The opportunity to join an expanding specialist school in Northampton.
A supportive working environment with opportunities to develop your teaching practice.
The chance to make a genuine difference to the education and future opportunities of young people.
