SEND Support Jobs

Have you got what it takes to work in SEND?

We're always looking for people who want to make a difference to the education of the children who need the most help.

Experience working with a variety of special needs and disabilities is always a plus, but having the right attitude is just as important.

If you've got a positive energy, patience and a flexible approach, we can find you work in mainstream and special schools, alternative provision settings and PRUs .

If you are new to working in SEND, we will help you develop your skills and experience through a combination of work placements and free training. You'll get to do some of the most rewarding and enjoyable jobs in education.

We offer CPD training courses to both experienced workers and people at the start of their SEND careers to equip you for specific roles with specific groups of pupils, often working in conjunction with schools themselves to deliver tailored programmes that lead to jobs.
