What can an SEN teacher expect in Wisbech?

Meadowgate Academy, part of Affinity Multi Academy Trust, is Wisbech's special school for pupils aged 2 to 19 and has been rated Outstanding by Ofsted. The town also has several independent specialist settings for pupils with social, emotional and mental health needs, plus alternative provision.

Mainstream primary and secondary schools in Wisbech also need SEN teachers for resource bases, small groups and pupils with Education, Health and Care Plans (EHCPs). Demand has grown as more children are identified with SEND.

SEN teachers here work with a wide range of needs, including autism, speech and language needs, moderate and severe learning difficulties and SEMH. Many pupils also speak English as an additional language, so communication-friendly teaching is essential.

Key Responsibilities

• Plan and teach personalised lessons for pupils with SEND
• Work towards EHCP outcomes and contribute to annual reviews
• Lead and direct teaching assistants in the classroom
• Use communication strategies such as visuals and Makaton where needed
• Support positive behaviour and emotional regulation
• Work with families, therapists and other professionals

Who we're looking for

• Qualified teachers (QTS or QTLS) with SEND experience
• Teachers experienced in autism, SEMH or complex needs
• Mainstream teachers looking to move into specialist settings
• Unqualified SEN instructors with strong specialist experience
