Contract: Long-term Supply with Opportunity for Permanent Appointment

Tradewind Recruitment is delighted to be working with a specialist SEN primary provision in Corby, who are seeking a dedicated and passionate SEN Primary Teacher to join their team. This is a long-term supply role initially, with the opportunity to become permanent for the right candidate.

The role involves teaching a mixed-age primary class, with students aged approximately 8 years and above, all of whom have a primary diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Many pupils may also present with additional needs such as communication difficulties, sensory processing differences, or associated social and emotional challenges. Class sizes are small, and you will be supported by a strong team of experienced teaching assistants and SEN professionals.

As the class teacher, you will be responsible for planning and delivering highly differentiated, engaging, and structured lessons that meet the individual needs of each pupil. Teaching is tailored around EHCP outcomes, using a range of strategies such as visual supports, structured routines, and personalised learning approaches to promote engagement, independence, and progress.

Key responsibilities include:

• Planning and delivering creative and inclusive lessons aligned to individual learning needs

• Supporting pupils' academic, social, emotional, and communication development

• Creating a calm, structured, and nurturing classroom environment

• Working collaboratively with support staff, therapists, and the SEN leadership team

• Monitoring progress and contributing to reviews and EHCP targets

• Building positive relationships with pupils, families, and colleagues

The ideal candidate will:

• Hold Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) or an equivalent recognised teaching qualification

• Have experience teaching pupils with ASD and complex SEN (SEN school or specialist provision experience preferred)

• Demonstrate patience, flexibility, and a genuine passion for SEN education

• Be committed to inclusive practice and child-centred learning

This is a fantastic opportunity for an SEN teacher looking for long-term stability, professional development, and the chance to secure a permanent role within a supportive and forward-thinking school.
