A School Built to Inspire Change and to motivate.
This specialist school in Croydon is designed for children with Autism and SEMH (Social, Emotional & Mental Health needs)—students who have found mainstream education overwhelming. Here, they receive the individualised support, structure, and nurturing environment they need to thrive.
Everything in this school has been carefully designed to foster confidence, curiosity, and progress—for students and staff alike.
As a English Teacher, you’ll benefit from:
- Small class sizes, allowing you to focus on each student’s progress
- Brand-new facilities with high-quality resources to bring learning to life
- A team of therapists and support staff, ensuring you’re never alone in managing challenges
- Specialist spaces including a multi-sports hall, therapy rooms, and dedicated learning zones, new PE resources and a grand football pitch
- They also have plans to create a school farm on their site.
- Outdoor learning opportunities, with access to a heated swimming pool and forest school
Teaching English in a Specialist Setting will mean you can work with the students to motivate them and inspire.
English lessons here aren’t about memorising formulas and racing through a syllabus—you’ll have the freedom to adapt your teaching to suit your students.
This might mean:
- Using interactive resources and games to build confidence
- Breaking concepts into manageable steps to reduce anxiety and their triggers
- Using visual, practical, and hands-on methods to engage students
Success in this setting isn’t just about academic progress—it’s about building problem-solving skills, resilience, and self-belief. Whether it’s a student grasping multiplication for the first time, confidently tackling algebra, or simply overcoming their fear of numbers, every small win is a step towards lifelong achievement.
The school provides full SEN training from day one, equipping you with the skills and confidence to make a lasting impact.
A Leadership Team That Invests in You!
A supportive team makes all the difference in specialist education, and this school’s leadership is committed to helping teachers grow.
Whether you want to:
- Refine your SEND expertise
- Develop new teaching strategies
- Progress into leadership
…there are ongoing training and career development opportunities to support you every step of the way.
