Linwood School has a number of vacancies for suitably experienced and qualified Teachers, for pupils who have a range of Special Educational Needs. We are seeking permanent, full and part-time Teachers. Campus and key stage preference will be discussed at interview.

At our autism-specific provision, Springwood Campus based in West Howe and Littlewood (EYFS specific campus) in Oakdale primary, the successful applicants will teach pupils who have a diagnosis of autism and other complex needs. Previous experience of working with children and young people with learning difficulties and/or social communication difficulties is desirable but not essential.  We have a number of colleagues who have successfully transitioned from mainstream schools. At Springwood Campus you will teach students with a diagnosis of autism and severe learning difficulties and will follow a semi-formal curriculum. 

At Linwood Campus, based in Winton, we have full-time and part-time vacancies for Teachers for students with a range of Special Educational Needs and Disabilities, including severe, moderate or complex learning needs.  Previous experience of working with children and young people with SEND is desirable but not essential.  There are highly skilled and experienced teams in our classes that will support the new Teacher in post.  

We have three pathways for our Post 16 students and they are delivered across three campuses; Summerwood based in Winton, CHI based in Christchurch and the Skills Centre based at Linwood Campus. Each curriculum is designed to support the individual needs of each student within that provision. However, all students within Post 16 will participate in a wellbeing programme which covers: • Health and Wellbeing • British Values • e-Safety • Relationships and Sex Education.

The successful candidates will be competent and effective classroom practitioners with the ability to lead a small team of Teaching Assistants within the classroom. You will be required to teach a range of subjects in one of our curriculum pathways and would have opportunities to lead subject areas. You will need a sound understanding of pedagogy and knowledge of teaching literacy and numeracy skills, and be confident to support learners with a wide range of abilities.
