Job overview
The Austen Academy is a Special Free school, which will offer full time education and therapeutic support to 125 children, aged 4 to 16 years old. The children at The Austen Academy all have a diagnosis of Autism, and are generally working at age related expectations. Pupils will be referred to the school by the local authority as part of their duties to arrange SEN provision.
This is an exciting time to join the school as we are working closely with The Chiltern Way Academy Trust, an award winning, outstanding specialist trust for boys and girls, aged 4 to 19, with ASC and SEMH; with a view to joining them in the near future.
As part of our next stage of growth, we are looking for a teacher to work in our provision, teaching students who have a diagnosis of Autism and SEN, in small groups. The work is intensive, requiring flexibility, sensitivity, patience, and resilience. An ability to work with and engage all students, with creativity and passion towards learning, is essential.
We are particularly interested in teachers with experience in a mainstream secondary school, who would like to learn more about working with young people with Autism / SEN.
Subject areas of particular interest are Maths, Music, Science, and vocational subjects, with the ability to teach to GCSE level.
You will be part of a small but effective team, where communication and professionalism is paramount. The work, whilst challenging, is extremely rewarding. Primarily, you will be required to teach, and produce schemes of work and lesson plans. Building rapport with students/families/carers is key to this role, and you will need to liaise with a variety of agencies to problem-solve student issues and barriers to learning.

Opened on the 19th April 2021, The Austen Academy is a Special Educational Needs (SEN) school for learners from Year 1 to Year 11 whose needs cannot be met within a mainstream environment. All students will have an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) in relation to their Social, Communication Needs (SCN) associated with a diagnosis of Autism.
Housed in a brand new, purpose built two-storey building with specialist classrooms and extensive external grounds, the Academy will grow to offer spaces for up to 128 full time pupils with personalised academic and therapeutic programmes to help them progress in life.
Our high-quality, professionally qualified staff team will bring out the best in all learners through a personalised approach, enabling them to achieve beyond their expectations. Time with us will significantly improve a young person’s chances in life due to our mixture of high-quality teaching and nurturing. Children and young people will build the confidence and the emotional resilience they need to manage their everyday lives and develop the language and communication skills necessary to engage positively in the community and eventually to live an independent life through employment and further education.
We're looking for caring and compassionate individuals to join our collaborative and dedicated staff team and help unlock our students' learning potential.
