Are you a passionate SEND educator who loves finding creative ways to engage learners? Do you believe every student deserves the opportunity to thrive, grow in confidence, and achieve their full potential?

We’re looking for an enthusiastic and dedicated Specialist SEND Lecturer to join a welcoming and supportive Further Education college in the Cambridge area this September.

This is more than just a teaching role. It’s an opportunity to make a lasting difference. You’ll work with incredible learners, celebrate their achievements, support their personal development, and help them gain the skills they need for independence, employment, and life beyond education.

No two days are ever the same, and every day brings the chance to make a genuine impact.

The Opportunity

As a Specialist SEND Lecturer, you’ll deliver engaging, inclusive and learner centred lessons to students with a range of additional learning needs, including autism, learning difficulties, SEMH needs and other SEND requirements.

You’ll create a positive and supportive learning environment where students feel valued, motivated and empowered to succeed. Working closely with support staff, therapists and wider college teams, you’ll play a key role in helping learners achieve both their academic and personal goals.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Planning and delivering engaging, differentiated lessons tailored to individual learner needs
• Creating a fun, supportive and inclusive learning environment
• Supporting learners to develop confidence, independence, communication and life skills
• Monitoring learner progress and celebrating achievements along the way
• Working towards EHCP outcomes and individual learning goals
• Using creative teaching approaches to keep learners motivated and engaged
• Collaborating with Learning Support Assistants, therapists and curriculum teams
• Supporting learners with preparation for adulthood, employability and future progression opportunities
• Contributing to a positive and inclusive college culture

What We’re Looking For

• Experience teaching learners with SEND, learning difficulties and disabilities
• A recognised teaching qualification such as PGCE, Cert Ed, DTLLS or equivalent
• Passion for inclusive education and learner success
• Strong classroom management and communication skills
• Ability to adapt teaching methods to suit a range of learning styles and needs
• A positive, patient and proactive approach
• Experience within Further Education or Supported Learning settings is highly desirable

Why Apply?

• September start
• Competitive hourly rate
• Supportive and welcoming college environment
• Opportunity to work with an inspiring cohort of learners
• Join a passionate and collaborative SEND team
• Ongoing professional development opportunities
• A rewarding role where you can see the difference you make every single day

If you’re passionate about SEND education and want to be part of a college that truly values inclusion, creativity and learner achievement, we’d love to hear from you.

Apply today and help shape brighter futures for learners across Cambridge.
