Job description

SEND Teacher - SEMH Provision (KS3/KS4)

Aspire People are working to support newly established specialist provision for Key Stage 3 and 4 pupils with Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH) needs. This setting caters for learners with Education, Health and Care Plans (EHCPs) who require a nurturing, trauma-informed and highly supportive educational environment.

The Role:
We are seeking an imaginative, resilient and inspiring Teacher who can engage young people with complex needs across a broad range of curriculum subjects. A specialism in English is highly desirable, although applications are welcomed from teachers with expertise in other subject areas. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a dynamic, high-support setting and is passionate about re-engaging students who have struggled to access mainstream education.

Key Responsibilities:
- Deliver creative, differentiated lessons across the curriculum, tailored to individual needs
- Support the social, emotional and academic development of pupils with SEMH and associated needs
- Use trauma-informed and therapeutic approaches to manage behaviour and build positive relationships
- Contribute to a safe, inclusive and respectful school culture
- Work closely with teaching assistants, pastoral staff and multi-agency teams
- Play an active role in curriculum development and whole-school improvement

Ideal Candidate Profile:
- Qualified Teacher Status (QTS/QTLS) - open to candidates from any key stage background
- Experience or interest in working with pupils with SEMH and behavioural challenges
- Understanding of trauma-informed practices and mental health support
- Strong behaviour management skills with a calm, consistent and empathetic approach
- A flexible, solution-focused mindset with a genuine desire to make a difference
- A committed team player who supports inclusion, innovation, and continuous improvement

This is a rare chance to make a real impact in a specialist school environment that values creativity, resilience and relational teaching approaches. Whether you're an experienced practitioner or an early career teacher looking for a meaningful opportunity, we'd love to hear from you.

Apply today through Aspire People or contact our SEND recruitment team to find out more.
Early applications are encouraged as interviews will be scheduled as suitable candidates are identified.

Aspire People is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of pupils and expects every candidate to share this commitment.
