Are you looking for a new challenge? Are you passionate about supporting children and young people with SEN to grow and learn? Are you keen to develop new skills? Come and join our fantastic team at Foreland Fields School!

We are seeking to recruit a lively and enthusiastic Teacher, to work part-time (0.4 FTE) within a Key Stage 2 Class from January 2022.

The ability to work with other disciplines and to direct a small team of teaching assistants is required.

Foreland Fields School is highly committed to improving the life chances of our pupils and students and to the raising of standards throughout the school.  We place a firm emphasis upon the knowledge and skills needed for later life, working in partnership with parents to achieve this. 

The successful candidate will therefore need to be able to demonstrate:

  • The drive and ambition to improve the life chances of pupils with SEN
  • A good understanding of current national, statutory and curriculum requirements.
  • The capability to deliver consistently good or better lessons.
  • Knowledge of teaching pupils with special educational needs in either a mainstream or specialist setting
  • The skill to differentiate their approach for pupils of all abilities
  • The ability to work well as a member of a team and have excellent interpersonal skills with children, parents, professionals and other adults
