You’re a strong, compassionate leader with a deep understanding of behaviour, inclusion, and the unique needs of vulnerable children. You’ve developed expertise in primary teaching and curriculum leadership and now, you’re looking for a role where your approach will be valued, and your presence will shape the future of an entire school community.
This Deputy Headteacher opportunity offers you the chance to step into a well-established therapeutic SEMH and ASC primary setting where nurture, care, and consistency are the foundation of everything they do.
The Role
Working alongside a highly respected and long-standing Headteacher, you’ll provide leadership across the school with a focus on primary curriculum, teaching and learning, and behavioural and emotional development.
This school offers a genuinely therapeutic model, rooted in relational practice, and is known for its holistic support for children with SEMH and autism. You’ll lead with clarity and compassion, building on the strong foundations already in place.
This post has come about due to the last DHT moving into a more senior role within the organisation. Due to the immediate need, the senior team is looking to interview at your earliest convenience to start the onboarding process to their permanent SLT.
What you’ll bring:
Proven experience in primary curriculum leadership and school improvement
Resilience and confidence in supporting children with SEMH, ASC, and complex needs
A calm, consistent approach to behaviour and staff development
Ability to lead by example and build trust across a multidisciplinary team
Experience in a specialist setting is ideal, but mainstream leaders with strong SEND understanding are warmly welcomed
Whether you're an experienced SEND leader or a senior leader in a mainstream setting with significant SEMH exposure, this role offers the rare opportunity to help shape a therapeutic learning environment for children who need consistency, empathy, and leadership that inspires hope.

Location: North London
Salary: £240 - £285 (PAYE) per day based on experience
Contract Type: Contract, Part time, Hybrid
Start Date: Easter
As a teacher with deep experience in autism and inclusive practice, you've made a tangible difference to the pupils you support. Navigating learning journeys, building trust, and creating environments where autistic children feel understood and valued.
But perhaps you’re now looking for something more strategic. A new chapter where you can have a broader impact, not just on pupils, but on the systems and staff that surround them.
This Autism Advisory Teacher opportunity offers exactly that.
Working as part of a highly respected and collaborative team, you'll advise and coach schools across Barnet, mainly primary mainstream settings, to improve outcomes for autistic children and young people.
You’ll bring your knowledge, empathy and leadership to:
Guide staff in embedding inclusive, neurodiversity-positive practice
Deliver training for educators and families
Support transitions, placements, and personalised learning plans
Promote wellbeing, emotional regulation, and self-advocacy in autistic pupils
Collaborate with a multi-agency team across education, health, and social care
This is a rare opportunity to step into a borough-wide role where your experience is not only valued but amplified.
What you’ll need:
Qualified Teacher Status (QTS)
Significant experience supporting autistic pupils in educational settings
A strong understanding of strategies like SCERTS, TEACCH, Attention Autism
The ability to inspire, train and support school staff with clarity and compassion
A collaborative, reflective mindset and commitment to inclusive education
A postgraduate qualification in autism or SEND would be an advantage, but is not essential if you bring the right passion and experience.
You’ll be joining a service that prioritises inclusion, invests in training and CPD, and encourages its team to innovate, reflect and grow. Whether you’re already in an advisory or outreach role, a SENCO looking to share your knowledge, or you’re an experienced classroom practitioner ready to take the next step, we’d love to hear from you!
