Long Term Cover Teacher Specialist SEMH Primary West London

Long Term Cover Teacher Specialist SEMH Primary West London

We are working with a specialist primary academy in the Hillingdon area to appoint a long term cover teacher.

Every child on roll has an EHCP, with needs that are predominantly social, emotional and mental health related. Classes are small, staffing ratios are generous and the school is built around trauma informed practice, so behaviour is understood rather than simply managed.

What makes this one worth a look

Nine class groups, each shaped around where the children are in their learning and development rather than age alone. On site therapeutic input including play therapy, speech and language therapy and educational psychology, so you are teaching alongside a team rather than carrying complex need on your own. The school holds the Inclusion Quality Mark and UNICEF Rights Respecting School status, and the culture genuinely reflects it.

The role

• Long term cover
• Full time, term time
• Planning, teaching and assessment for one class group

What you will need

• Calm, consistent, relationship led practice
• Enhanced DBS on the Update Service, or willingness to apply
• Right to work in the UK
