If the trial is a success, we’ll be rolling the 4DWW out across the Group – so there’s never been a more exciting time to join #teamOFG!

Job Title:   SEN Teacher (Maternity Cover)

Location:   Underley Garden School, Kirkby Lonsdale, LA6 2DZ

Salary:       Up to £41,000.00 per annum (DOE) + £,000 Welcome Bonus**

Hours:       40 hours per week, Monday to Friday

Contract:   Fixed Term ending October 2026, Term Time Only

Start:         October 2025

This role does not offer sponsorship.

At Underley Garden School, part of the Outcomes First Group, we believe every child deserves the chance to flourish. As part of our continued growth, we are now offering an exciting opportunity for a qualified and passionate SEN Teacher to join our warm, supportive team on a maternity cover basis.

This isn’t your average teaching role. Our young people have autism, learning difficulties, and complex needs — and they deserve a teacher who sees their potential, understands their challenges, and knows how to unlock their strengths through creativity, innovation, and care.

About the Role

As a dynamic and motivated SEN Teacher, you’ll have every opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of pupils with complex needs. You’ll plan and deliver engaging, meaningful lessons tailored to individual needs, working in a unique environment with extensive resources and expert support at your side.

This role is all about inspiring growth – academically, socially, and emotionally. You’ll observe, monitor and assess students to ensure their wellbeing and development are always a top priority.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Deliver creative and inclusive lessons across Key Stages 3–5.
  • Develop exciting teaching strategies that foster a love of learning.
  • Support pupils’ personal and emotional development as well as academic progress.
  • Work closely with a multidisciplinary team to meet individual EHCP targets.
  • Build strong, positive relationships with pupils, families, and professionals.
  • Contribute to the wider school life and continuous development of our provision.

Who We’re Looking For

We are looking for a passionate, dedicated teacher and an exceptional communicator — someone just as comfortable engaging with students with autism and complex needs as they are contributing to the school’s wider vision.

You will thrive in our close-knit, family-like school community and relish the opportunity to help each pupil reach their full potential through highly personalised learning.

You will need:

  • UK Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) or equivalent – essential.
  • Experience teaching children or young people with SEN, autism, or complex needs – desirable.
  • Creativity, adaptability, and resilience in a specialist teaching environment.
  • A team-focused mindset and a genuine passion for supporting vulnerable learners.
  • Commitment to safeguarding and promoting pupil welfare.

At Underley Garden School, part of the Outcomes First Group, we believe every child deserves the chance to flourish. As part of our continued growth, we are now offering an exciting opportunity for a qualified and passionate SEN Teacher to join our warm, supportive team on a maternity cover basis.

This isn’t your average teaching role. Our young people have autism, learning difficulties, and complex needs — and they deserve a teacher who sees their potential, understands their challenges, and knows how to unlock their strengths through creativity, innovation, and care.

About the Role

As a dynamic and motivated SEN Teacher, you’ll have every opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of pupils with complex needs. You’ll plan and deliver engaging, meaningful lessons tailored to individual needs, working in a unique environment with extensive resources and expert support at your side.

Who We’re Looking For

We are looking for a passionate, dedicated teacher and an exceptional communicator — someone just as comfortable engaging with students with autism and complex needs as they are contributing to the school’s wider vision.

You will thrive in our close-knit, family-like school community and relish the opportunity to help each pupil reach their full potential through highly personalised learning.

You will need:

  • UK Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) or equivalent – essential.
  • Experience teaching children or young people with SEN, autism, or complex needs – desirable.
  • Creativity, adaptability, and resilience in a specialist teaching environment.
  • A team-focused mindset and a genuine passion for supporting vulnerable learners.
  • Commitment to safeguarding and promoting pupil welfare.
