Every person deserves the right to access meaningful education. That's where you come in. As a Teacher, you'll play a key role in delivering personalised learning programs to neurodiverse young adults (ages 16 to 25), ensuring they receive the best educational opportunities possible.

We encourage creativity in teaching, so you're free to design lessons that are engaging and tailored to each learner's interests—whether it’s incorporating hobbies or exploring new ways to make learning fun. Our curriculum follows the Post-16 Study Programme model, where learners engage in work experience, life skills activities, and essential functional skills subjects like Maths and English, helping them prepare for adulthood.

We encourage and welcome you to visit our college and experience first-hand the engaging world of teaching in a SEND (Special Educational Needs and Disabilities) environment. With small class sizes of just 5-7 learners, you'll experience how it’s possible to build strong, meaningful connections with the learners.

Some learners may face social and emotional challenges, and part of your role will be to help our learners build essential life skills. A key focus will be on developing communication and language techniques, as well as supporting emotional expression through a neurodiverse-affirming curriculum. You'll have excellent support in this, as our college is committed to a total communication environment and work collaboratively across the campus.

You’ll get all the training and support you need to make sure our learners have the best experience possible. Whether it be curriculum development skills, seeking guidance from colleagues or working with our integrated therapies team.


A day in the life of a Teacher will involve:

Leading classroom activities including planning, teaching, and assessing learning, particularly with ‘your’ class. This will involve a range of subjects and topics involved in pathways to adulthood and pastoral support.
Monitoring and recording progress, both academically and against EHCP outcomes.
Working closely with learners, keeping them engaged, motivated, and inspired to reach their full potential.
Providing inspirational learning opportunities to learners, whether in the classroom or out in the community. You’ll work either 1:1 with learners or in small group settings to help them achieve their learning goals.
Working closely with Learning Support Assistants to direct them to effectively support the learners.
Being able to provide and develop a curriculum bespoke to each individual learner. You’ll need to be adaptable in your teaching style as some learners may focus on becoming more independent, while others aim to secure employment.
Being able to recognise when a learners progress is at risk, and where we could improve. You’ll need to be committed to seeking to understand each young person and their needs.
