SEND & SEMH Education Opportunities
Job description
SEND & SEMH Education Opportunities | East Sussex
I'm a Recruitment Consultant with a background in SEND education, and I work closely with specialist schools across East Sussex supporting them with both teaching and support staff recruitment.
One thing I hear time and time again from educators is that finding the right setting can be difficult. Every school is different, every cohort is different, and not every environment suits every educator.
That's why, rather than advertising a single vacancy, I'm looking to connect with good people who are open to exploring opportunities across a range of SEND and SEMH settings.
Opportunities May Include
- SEND Teacher positions
- SEMH Teacher positions
- Teaching Assistant roles
- Learning Support Assistant positions
- Behaviour and Engagement Support
- 1:1 Support Roles
- Long-term and ongoing placements
Across primary and secondary specialist settings.
What Schools Are Looking For
Schools consistently tell me they're looking for people who:
- Build strong relationships
- Remain calm under pressure
- Bring consistency and reliability
- Work collaboratively with colleagues
- Genuinely care about helping young people succeed
Experience within SEND is valuable, but attitude and approach are often just as important.
Practical Information
- Opportunities across East Sussex
- Immediate and September starts available
- Teaching roles paid to scale
- TA / LSA roles paid at £92.60 per day
- Child-only enhanced DBS on the Update Service required
If you don't currently hold one, you'll need to apply through us. Support is provided throughout the process, though the cost is covered by the applicant.
Interested?
Apply today and let's have a conversation about what opportunities might be the right fit for you.
All applicants will require the appropriate qualifications and training for this role. Please see the FAQ’s on the Teaching Personnel website for details.
All pay rates quoted will be inclusive of 12.07% statutory holiday pay. This advert is for a temporary position. In some cases, the option to make this role permanent may become available at a later date.
Teaching Personnel is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. We undertake safeguarding checks on all workers in accordance with DfE statutory guidance ‘Keeping Children Safe in Education’ this may also include an online search as part of our due diligence on shortlisted applicants.
We offer all our registered candidates FREE child protection and prevent duty training. All candidates must undertake or have undertaken a valid enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check. Full assistance provided.
