Help shape futures at an Outstanding special school

Pupils thrive at this life-changing school. – Ofsted, 2024

At Chailey Heritage School, part of Chailey Heritage Foundation, you'll join an Ofsted Outstanding special school where education sits alongside therapy, nursing, care and specialist support services to help children and young people with complex disabilities achieve extraordinary outcomes.

This is more than a teaching role. It's an opportunity to be part of a nationally recognised organisation that has been transforming lives for over 120 years, working within a highly skilled multidisciplinary team that shares one ambition: helping every young person explore what's possible.

About the role

As a SEND Class Teacher, you'll provide high-quality teaching and learning for pupils with physical disabilities, complex communication needs, sensory impairments, medical needs and learning difficulties.

Working alongside a skilled class team, including a Lead Education Assistant and Specialist/Education Assistants, you'll plan and deliver engaging, individualised learning experiences through our CHILD (Chailey Heritage Individual Learner Driven) Curriculum. You'll help pupils develop confidence, communication, independence and the skills they need to achieve meaningful outcomes.

You'll also play an important leadership role, supporting and developing colleagues within the classroom, building strong relationships with families, working closely with therapists, nurses and other professionals to ensure every pupil receives the very best support.

What makes this role different?

At Chailey Heritage Foundation, you'll work within a truly integrated environment where education is just one part of a wider approach to supporting children and young people.

You'll collaborate with:

Speech and Language Therapists
Occupational Therapists
Physiotherapists
Nursing and healthcare professionals
Families and external professionals

About you

We're looking for someone who:

Holds Qualified Teacher Status (QTS)
Is passionate about inclusive education and SEND
Can adapt teaching creatively to meet a wide range of complex needs
Builds positive relationships with pupils, families and colleagues
Enjoys working collaboratively within multidisciplinary teams
Demonstrates resilience, professionalism and a commitment to high standards
Shares our values and belief that every child deserves the opportunity to reach their full potential

Experience within SEND, specialist education, SLD, PMLD or complex needs environments would be advantageous, but we’re equally interested in hearing from teachers (including newly qualified teachers) with the right values, commitment and willingness to learn.

Why join us?

Teaching at Chailey Heritage Foundation offers something that's difficult to find elsewhere.

You'll have the opportunity to develop specialist expertise alongside therapists, nurses and education professionals, gaining experience within a nationally recognised centre of excellence for children and young people with complex disabilities.

Alongside a competitive salary and teachers’ pension scheme, we offer:

Extensive professional development and specialist training opportunities
Access to multidisciplinary learning and collaboration
Health and wellbeing support, including an Employee Assistance Programme
Colleague benefits and discount schemes
Free on-site parking
Access to on-site café
The opportunity to work in a beautiful rural setting within the South Downs, with extensive grounds and specialist facilities
A supportive culture that values innovation, learning and professional growth

Whether you're already experienced or looking to start your career in specialist education, or looking to deepen your SEND expertise, we'll support you to develop your skills and build a rewarding long-term career.

Discover more about who we are and what we stand for on the Chailey Heritage Foundation website

Apply today

If you're looking for a teaching role where you can have a meaningful impact, develop your expertise and be part of something bigger than the classroom, we'd love to hear from you.

Closing date 30/06/2026

Interviews will be held on 6th and 7th July
