SEND Teacher – The reason some pupils don’t give up
Not every classroom runs on neat lesson plans and tidy outcomes.
Some run on patience.
On trust.
On the quiet moment a child finally feels safe enough to try.
If that’s the kind of teaching that drives you, you’ll feel at home here.
We’re looking for a SEND Teacher for a School in North Leeds who understands that progress isn’t always loud, sometimes it’s a glance, a word, a small step forward that no one else notices… but you do
You’ll be working in specialist and alternative settings, supporting pupils who need consistency, structure, and someone who genuinely gets it.
What your role will really look like
This is teaching, just differently.
• Shaping learning around each pupil, not forcing them into a one-size-fits-all approach
• Building trust with children who’ve learned not to give it easily
• Working closely with TAs, SENCOs, and therapists as part of a proper team
• Supporting pupils with ASD, SEMH, PMLD, and complex needs
• Turning tough moments into breakthroughs, even if they’re small
And those small wins? They’re everything ✨
Why SEND teachers choose this kind of role or move over from mainstream
You’re not here for easy days, you’re here for meaningful ones.
• The chance to teach in a way that actually reflects your values
• Support from teams who understand SEND, not just talk about it
• Opportunities across specialist schools, PRUs, and alternative provisions
• A pathway to long-term or permanent roles where you can really settle
You’ll thrive here if you…
✔️ Stay calm when the day takes an unexpected turn
✔️ Adapt naturally, no two pupils, or days, are the same
✔️ Build relationships first, teaching follows
✔️ Believe every child deserves to feel safe, understood, and capable
What you’ll need
QTS or strong experience within SEND settings
A patient, compassionate approach
Confidence adapting lessons to meet a range of needs
⭐ What you’ll get back
Weekly PAYE pay, no umbrella faff
Free CPD, including SEND and behaviour support
A consultant who actually listens, not just fills roles
Flexible opportunities that fit you
Quick one… are you Thrive trained?
If you are, amazing, schools love it.
If not, we’ve got you covered. We offer free Thrive training, giving you practical tools to support emotional development and stand out even more in SEND settings.
