Special Educational Needs (SEN) Teacher

A Special Educational Needs (SEN) Teacher works with children and young people who need extra support due to learning difficulties, disabilities or emotional and behavioural problems. SEN teachers adapt the national curriculum to meet the individual needs of their pupils, create tailored learning plans, and work closely with teaching assistants, parents and other professionals. They teach in mainstream schools, special schools, or specialist units and play a crucial role in helping each student reach their potential. The role requires patience, creativity, and a strong commitment to supporting children with a range of educational needs.
