Newcastle SEND Sensory Service is seeking to appoint a full-time qualified teacher of deaf children from April 2025. This post is an excellent opportunity to join an enthusiastic team who support the achievements of children and young people who are deaf, their families, settings, and schools across the city.
The successful candidate will be an outstanding practitioner who has recent mainstream teaching experience. We will consider suitably experienced teachers without the mandatory qualification who are interested in developing their specialist skills to work with children and young people who are deaf and are willing to undertake the two-year specialist postgraduate qualification. The Service provides a mentorship programme for all new members of staff and for those in training.
The appointment is to a city-wide Service with the role initially based in one of the Additionally Resourced Provisions, at Benton Park Primary School, Broadwood Primary School or Jesmond Park Academy.
The successful candidate requires excellent interpersonal skills, and the ability to work effectively with families, schools, colleagues, and other professionals. We are looking to appoint an enthusiastic, motivated professional who is committed to improving the outcomes for children and young people who are deaf.
The ability to be well organized and to meet deadlines is essential. This will be a demanding, varied, highly challenging, and rewarding role that will provide an excellent career opportunity for an exceptional individual.
