SEN PE Teacher

We are working on behalf of an SEN school based in Worcestershire who are looking for an SEN PE teacher to carry out long-term interim cover. Please find details below:

The role would be to start in the autumn term and would be till Christmas in the first instance. The school will be advertising the role and therefore would welcome applications from any temporary member of staff covering the position.

The role is Monday to Friday, 8.30 am - 3.30 pm, and the role would be on a term-time only temporary time sheet basis with the teacher being paid to scale in line with their experience and qualifications

You would be teaching pupils from 11 to 16 years of age who have been excluded or are at the risk of being excluded from mainstream due to social, emotional and mental health (SEMH) challenges

Some pupils also have other special needs such as ASC and ADHD, but are taught in small classes with experienced Teaching Assistants supporting

The role is covering PE and the school would ideally like someone with QTS, but is open to anyone who is an experienced unqualified teacher or qualified sports coach

You need to have an empathy and understanding for working with children with SEMH and have strong behaviour management

The school consists of a close-knit team who support each other, and they have strong leadership and are driven by giving their pupils the opportunity to thrive and turn their lives around

The school is well resourced and has a good atmosphere in line with the strong team ethos of the staff and tries to mirror a mainstream school as much as possible in their working practices

Experience of Team Teach or similar de-escalation techniques is desirable but not essential
