Be the Teacher They Remember Forever!
Are you enthusiastic about transforming the lives of young people with Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH) needs? Are you ready to take on a challenge that is as rewarding as it is inspiring? If so, our school in Walsall is looking for exceptional, empathetic, and innovative secondary teachers to join us this September.
We believe every child deserves a champion. If you do too – we want to hear from you!
Who Are We?
We are a specialist SEMH secondary school based in Walsall, supporting pupils from Key Stage 3 to Key Stage 4. Our students have often faced significant barriers to learning due to trauma, adverse childhood experiences, or complex needs. All students have an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP), and many are diagnosed with conditions such as ADHD, ASD, PTSD, and attachment disorders.
We are more than just a school – we are a safe space, a therapeutic learning environment, and a community for young people and their families. Our approach is built on empathy, relationships, and relentless commitment to student growth.
We are on an exciting journey to expand our provision, strengthen our multi-agency working, and build a culture of success for pupils who may have previously disengaged from education.

Deliver engaging, adaptive and personalised lessons
*
Create a safe, structured, and nurturing classroom environment
*
Build trust and positive relationships with students who may have experienced educational trauma
*
Work collaboratively as part of a strong, supportive team

Support emotional regulation and embed therapeutic approaches in daily routines
*
Plan and track student progress in line with individual EHCP targets

*
Ability to adapt the curriculum to meet individual learning needs
*
Excellent communication and relationship-building skills

Why Join Us?
