Working in a special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) school comes with a unique set of challenges and rewards. Success depends on your commitment, hard work, and dedication. However, knowing that each day your contribution will positively affect the life of a child or young person who needs additional support, makes it all worthwhile.

The Jobs​

Special Needs experience is not essential

Previous experience working with children with SEND is desirable but not essential. We are also looking for people new to working in a special needs school.

The Trust is open to looking at different career pathways to find the right people for this unique opportunity.
