SEND Teacher

Wakefield
 Competitive daily rate, depending on experience
 Full-time, long-term opportunities

Looking for a teaching role where you can make a real difference?

In SEND education, the biggest wins aren't always the loudest. Sometimes it's helping a pupil feel safe enough to walk into the classroom. Sometimes it's seeing a child try something they never thought they could.

Those moments matter.

We're looking for caring, adaptable SEND Teachers to work in specialist schools and alternative provisions across Wakefield. You'll support pupils with a range of additional needs, helping them grow in confidence as well as in the classroom.

If you enjoy building strong relationships and believe every child deserves the chance to succeed, we'd love to hear from you.

What you'll be doing

No two days are the same, but you can expect to:

Plan and deliver lessons that meet individual learning needs
Adapt teaching for pupils with ASD, SEMH, PMLD and other complex needs
Build positive relationships where trust comes first
Work closely with Teaching Assistants, SENCOs, therapists and wider school teams
Create calm, structured classrooms where pupils can thrive
Support both academic progress and emotional wellbeing
Every child learns differently. Your job is to help them find their way.

Why choose SEND?

Many teachers move into SEND because it reminds them why they became teachers in the first place.

You'll have the chance to:

Work in specialist schools, SEND settings, PRUs and alternative provisions
Join supportive teams who understand the rewards and challenges of SEND
Access long-term and permanent opportunities
Make a genuine difference to pupils every single day

We'd love to hear from you if you:

✔️ Stay calm when plans need to change

✔️ Know that strong relationships are the foundation of learning

✔️ Bring patience, resilience and empathy to your classroom

✔️ Want every child to feel valued, supported and successful

What you'll need

QTS, QTLS or strong SEND teaching experience
Experience in SEND, SEMH, SEN or specialist education is desirable
Confidence adapting lessons to suit a range of needs
A calm, compassionate and flexible approach
