We’re looking for an enthusiastic and inspiring EYFS/KS1 SEN Teacher to join our growing team and help pupils thrive at Riseley Green School.

About the Role

This is a unique opportunity to play a key role in shaping learning experiences within a nurturing and ambitious school environment.

We are seeking a passionate SEN teacher with experience in EYFS/KS1. While the primary focus will be early years and Key Stage 1, the role may also involve supporting KS2/3 pupils who follow a highly adapted curriculum designed to meet individual needs and unlock their full potential.

You’ll personalise learning, build confidence through meaningful progress, and help create a school culture where every child feels valued, supported, and celebrated.

This is more than a teaching position — it’s an opportunity to help shape the heart and future of a developing school community.

You’ll join a supportive, forward-thinking network that champions creativity, wellbeing, and professional development. Together, we’ll make Riseley Green a place where both pupils and staff can truly flourish.

What you'll do:

Deliver high-quality, engaging lessons that make learning accessible, motivating, and enjoyable for every pupil
Adapt teaching approaches to meet diverse learning needs using creative strategies and innovative resources
Collaborate with the Headteacher and colleagues to shape curriculum delivery and contribute to whole-school development
Teach across a range of subjects where required, encouraging curiosity and confidence beyond core learning areas
Promote pupils’ wellbeing, independence, and personal development at every stage of their journey
Safeguard and promote the welfare of all pupils in line with statutory requirements and school policies

What We’re Looking For

Qualified Teacher Status (QTS)
Full UK Driving Licence and access to own vehicle (due to school location)
A proven passion for supporting pupils with SEN and complex needs
A positive, trauma-informed approach with patience, empathy, and resilience
A collaborative mindset — ready to contribute ideas and help shape a new, inspiring school community
A commitment to inclusion, innovation, and continuous professional growth
