Description:
Tradewind are pleased to offer an exciting part-time SEN English Teacher opportunity at an SEND school for autism in Workington commencing in September 2024!
The school are specialised to cater for pupils with autism, and they require a teacher to work with secondary aged pupils, with particular emphasis on leading English. The pupils are of mixed ability, working from GCSE level but also Functional Skills and ASDAN, whilst also differentiating for pupils working at Key Stage 2 level.
The role will involve predominantly teaching English across different ability secondary aged classes in the mornings, with the afternoons dedicated to more cross-curricular, topic-based learning. The position will be on a long term, part-time 0.6 basis, with a permanent opportunity becoming available later in the year for the right candidate.
Therefore, whilst a secondary trained English Teacher would be desirable, the school are open to hiring a primary trained teacher who has experience of teaching pupils with special needs. The preference would be for the days to be Mon-Weds, but for the right candidate they can be flexible.
The school has fantastic on-site facilities for children with autism, and class sizes are small - with a maximum of 6 pupils per class, and with 2-3 teaching assistants in every classroom too. The SLT and staff pride themselves on providing an environment and curriculum where pupils will be happy.
