Special Educational Needs Coordinator (SENCo)

Northview International seeks an experienced and dedicated SENCo to lead and develop our provision for students with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). This whole-school leadership role ensures that every learner is supported, valued, and challenged to achieve their personal best.

The SENCo will coordinate the identification, assessment, and support of students with SEND across all phases of the school. It will include developing Individual Education Plans (IEPs), overseeing targeted interventions, and ensuring appropriate accommodations are in place. A key aspect of the role involves working collaboratively with teachers, support staff, parents, and external specialists to foster an inclusive learning environment.

The successful candidate will be a qualified teacher with a postgraduate specialization in Special Educational Needs or Inclusion and a proven track record of effective leadership in SEND provision—familiarity with international frameworks such as the US IDEA is preferred.

It is an exciting opportunity to shape inclusive practice at a growing international school and to ensure that Northview’s commitment to equity, diversity, and excellence is fully realized for every student. Candidates should be passionate about inclusion, highly organized, culturally responsive, and able to deliver professional development to colleagues to strengthen whole-school inclusive practice.

If you are ready to make a meaningful impact in a dynamic, diverse community, we invite you to apply and join us on our mission to support every student’s success.

Northview is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. All shortlisted candidates and postholders are subject to appropriate International Criminal and Child Protection Background Checks or equivalent, covering the previous ten years of employment history.
