Teacher of Humanities (SEN)

Teacher of Humanities (History and Geography plus a second subject).

Tes is currently supporting a friendly and supportive SEN school, based in Sutton in Ashfield, Nottinghamshire. The school is looking to add a Teacher of Humanities to its progressive and supportive Department ideally starting ASAP.

The role will include teaching and coordinating the delivery of Humanities at KS3, GCSE and A-level. You will support the Head of Humanities to enhance provision and will get the chance to get involved with exciting project work throughout the year. Project work will include revising schemes of work and ensuring the curriculum is engaging to all learners alongside projects that support student attainment, well-being and engagement within the wider school. You’ll also lead by example, supporting learners to achieve to the best of their ability and you’ll enjoy that great feeling when your learners achieve grades beyond their dreams.

“Are you a Humanities Teacher committed to improving the lives of children and young people? We are looking for an experienced Humanities Teacher to join our fantastic team at the School. As a Humanities Teacher, you will take a creative approach to teaching pupils according to their educational needs, ensuring delivery of the school curriculum in a way that maximises children’s achievement and ability to develop.

This is a great opportunity for a Humanities Teacher who wants to spend less time on paperwork and more time developing creative learning opportunities for children with varied and complex needs. Your work will be challenging and rewarding in equal measure and you will be working in a school where we maintain a strong safeguarding culture, where pupils are listened to, respected and involved in as many decisions as possible. When it comes to looking after our children, we never settle for second best. We are looking for a Humanities Teacher, experienced in teaching, who shares our vision to build incredible futures by empowering vulnerable young people in the UK, to be happy and to make their way in the world. Whilst previous experience of working in an SEN environment would be desirable, excellent teaching skills and the right motivation, personal qualities and levels of resilience are just as important. Educated to Qualified Teacher Status, you will be calm, engaging, resilient, and have an innovative style of teaching, motivated by helping every child to reach their potential."
