The SEN Teacher Job
A superb mainstream Secondary School based in North Barnet, North London is seeking an SEN teacher with some recent ASD and SLD experience to join their team with immediate effect. Ideally the successful SEN Teacher applicant will have a proven track record working in an SEN environment but the Headteacher will consider a suitably trained teacher with a passion for SEN, a proven track record as a teacher and a can do attitude. The role will be to work with a very small group of year 8 students on a full time, long term basis.
The School/Class
The successful SEN Teacher applicant will be working with Year 8 students with Autism Severe Learning Difficulties (SLD.) There will be opportunity to work with other students as well however the main focus of the role will be to facilitate learning, manage behaviour, promote healthy relationships and provide a positive working environment with one group of year 8 students.
Much of the work you would be doing will be based loosely on the Upper Primary and lower Key Stage 3 curriculum with a particular focus on developing social and communication skills. You will be working alongside two really friendly learning support assistants (LSAs) who know the children and the school procedures and will help you get up to speed quickly. Some experience of PECS and makaton would be advantageous but training is available.
This is a quite challenging class as they are high energy but there are excellent staff and strategies in place.
The Successful SEN Teacher Applicant
The successful SEN Teacher candidate will be flexible, with the ability to use their own initiative where required. Experience working in an SEN school or with ASD and SLD children would be an advantage due to the challenges of the class however excellent training is available. They would be more than happy to support an excellent practitioner with passion for SEN but limited SEN experience.
Progress with these pupils can be slow when compared to their contemporaries so patience, a caring nature, passion for the job and strong self belief will be essential.
