Special Needs Teacher Required for Maternity Cover
Zen Educate is looking to appoint a teacher to take on a maternity cover contract for a special needs school in Gloucester. This will involve teaching a small cohort of students at year 6 level (8 students), all of whom have been diagnosed with either SEMH, ASC, or ADHD. There is a full-time TA to support, and this post is full-time and starting ASAP.
The school, which is part of a wider group of academies in the south west, has a great team in place that focuses on giving students the best possible outcome of their school day, despite the personal struggles they may be dealing with. It is important that the right teacher sees value and potential in all students, holds strong boundaries, but also has lots of empathy.
Marking and planning are expected as part of this work, and the right teacher will need to have strong communication skills to ensure that student progress is reported to other members of staff at the school as well as the parents of students.
Minimum Requirements:
1. UK QTS is required for this post.
2. We welcome applications from either special needs experienced teachers or those from a mainstream setting looking to do something a little different from standard primary teaching.
3. An enhanced DBS on the update service is required, either via one already held or by applying for one as part of your application.
This work would suit someone with a keen interest in mental health or neurodivergence who wants to instil self-esteem and confidence in those that feel they can't achieve in school.
