  • Experience using behaviour management strategies to support students with challenging behaviours.
  • Excellent communication skills, engaging students, parents, and colleagues in a constructive and supportive manner.
  • A patient, empathetic, and solutions-focused approach to teaching and supporting students.

**Performance Expectations:**

  • Differentiated Learning: Use various teaching methods and resources to accommodate individual learning styles, ensuring each student can access and make progress in the English curriculum.
  • Assessment & Feedback: Regularly assess student understanding of English concepts, providing clear and actionable feedback to guide improvement.
  • Behaviour Management: Consistently implement effective behaviour management strategies to maintain a positive, focused, and productive classroom environment.
  • Collaboration & Communication: Work collaboratively with colleagues, including SENCo and teaching assistants, to ensure the best outcomes for students. Maintain regular communication with parents and carers about their child's progress and areas for support.
  • Professional Growth: Engage in ongoing professional development to stay informed of best practices in teaching English to students with SEND and SEMH, integrating these into your classroom practice.
