SEN Teacher
Are you an enthusiastic, compassionate educator with a passion for Special Educational Needs? Teach Now is delighted to offer a rewarding opportunity for a qualified SEN Teacher (EYFS/KS1) to join a highly respected Additional Resource Provision in Barnet.
Set in a nurturing and inclusive primary school, this provision supports a group of approximately 20 autistic children, split between two well-resourced classrooms. The successful candidate will lead one of these classes, delivering personalised, engaging lessons to children primarily working towards Early Learning Goals. You'll work closely with two supportive teaching assistants and benefit from a comprehensive handover with the current teacher before they begin maternity leave.
This role is more than a teaching post—it's a chance to make a meaningful impact under the guidance of an award-winning SEN leader, whose passion and expertise have made this one of the borough's standout SEN settings. Every teacher placed here has praised the positive, collaborative atmosphere, even amidst the challenges that come with SEN teaching.
What We’re Looking For:
• Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) with EYFS or KS1 experience
• Proven experience working with SEND children, particularly autism
• A calm, professional presence and a nurturing, compassionate approach
• Confidence using assistive tech and Widgit resources
• Willingness to support personal care when needed
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to manage a small team
Why Apply?
• Join a pioneering provision with a fantastic reputation
• Work with passionate, supportive colleagues
• Receive guidance from a highly experienced SEN leader
• Make a real difference in a setting that values your skills
• Competitive London salary range
