A small independent specialist school in Boston, Lincolnshire needs a qualified SEN Teacher with a primary background to take the lead on numeracy, starting ASAP on a temp-to-perm basis. Your class will be a handful of Key Stage 4 learners with mild learning disabilities, all working at around Key Stage 1. They are verbal, communicative and generally settled in lessons. Teaching runs from 8:45am to 2:45pm, with the rest of the day set aside for planning and preparation.

About the Setting

This is a very small specialist school within a larger group of SEND provisions. Staffing ratios are high, groups are tiny and the school is being rebuilt under its headteacher, who wants a teacher able to shape the maths curriculum from the ground up.

What You'll Be Doing

• Leading numeracy across the school, using KS1 and KS2 objectives presented in a way that suits teenagers
• Teaching functional maths through real tasks such as handling money, telling the time, weighing and measuring
• Tracking progress against EHCP outcomes and adjusting plans each half term
• Planning with the literacy lead and directing teaching assistants in lessons
• Keeping routines predictable and responding calmly if a pupil becomes dysregulated
• Attending the weekly staff meeting, which runs until 3:45pm

About You

• Qualified teacher with QTS or QTLS; primary-trained candidates are particularly welcome
• Confident teaching early maths at KS1/KS2
• Experience of SEN or learning disabilities, or a mainstream primary teacher ready to move into SEND
• Able to pitch work at KS1 level while keeping it respectful of older learners' age
