  • Robust knowledge of behaviour management techniques, theories and their practical application with children with complex needs
  • Sound knowledge of planning and assessment techniques, including personalised learning approaches
  • Understanding of safeguarding, child protection, health and safety and equal opportunities requirements
  • Relevant classroom teaching experience, particularly with young people with wide-ranging and complex needs
  • Ability to communicate effectively in both verbal and written formats
  • Confidence using ICT and a variety of teaching resources to plan, deliver and assess outstanding learning
  • Strong teamworking skills and the ability to work collaboratively to deliver a holistic educational package
  • Resilience and the ability to cope with competing emotional demands
  • Excellent time management skills with an adaptable, creative and flexible approach
  • Commitment to self-development and continuous professional learning

Nice to have

  • Experience working in an independent or specialist school setting
  • Knowledge of therapeutic frameworks such as Thrive

What we offer

  • Life insurance (death in service) – 4x basic annual salary

  • Training and development – induction and mandatory training, plus CPD, therapeutic support and further qualifications
  • Free holiday accommodation – company holiday home on the south coast
