Are you a Class Teacher committed to improving the lives of children and young people?
We are looking for an experienced Teacher with SEMH experience to join our fantastic team at Park School, Chipping Norton. As Class Teacher, you will take a creative approach to teaching pupils according to their educational needs, ensuring delivery of the school curriculum in a way that maximises children’s achievement and ability to develop.
This is a great opportunity for a Teacher with SEMH experience who wants to spend less time on paperwork and more time developing creative learning opportunities for children with varied and complex needs. Your work will be challenging and rewarding in equal measure and you will be working in a school where we maintain a strong safeguarding culture, where pupils are listened to, respected and involved in as many decisions as possible.
When it comes to looking after our children, we never settle for second best. We are looking for a Class Teacher experienced with SEMH in teaching a range of subjects and who shares our vision to build incredible futures by empowering vulnerable young people in the UK to be happy and to make their way in the world.
Experience of working in the independent SEMH sector and with children with SEN would be an advantage. This role will be based at our Cotswold Lodge site working with a small group of children. Please contact the Headteacher for more details. Visits to the school are encouraged.
The successful candidate must be familiar with and happy to adopt a therapeutic approach to teaching and working with SEN/SEMH children. Educated to degree level and Qualified Teacher Status, you will be calm, engaging, resilient, and have an innovative style of teaching, motivated by helping every child to reach their potential.
