Special Educational Needs (SEN) Teachers – September 2026 Start

Think Education Partners | Thurrock • Havering • East London

Think Education Partners are proud to be supporting a range of specialist SEN schools across Thurrock, Havering and the surrounding areas as they begin recruiting SEN Teachers for September 2026. We have opportunities for both experienced SEN practitioners and mainstream teachers who are ready to transition into special education and make a meaningful impact.

The SEN Schools We Work With

We partner with a diverse mix of specialist settings, including:

* ASC (Autism Spectrum Condition) schools

* SEMH (Social, Emotional & Mental Health) provisions

* PMLD (Profound & Multiple Learning Difficulties) schools

* SLCN (Speech, Language & Communication Needs) settings

* PRUs and Alternative Provisions

* Schools supporting ADHD, complex needs, and multi‑diagnosis learners

Each school offers a supportive, child‑centred environment where teachers can genuinely shape progress.

Why Choose SEN Teaching?

Working in SEN offers a uniquely rewarding teaching experience:

* Smaller class sizes and personalised learning

* Strong multi‑disciplinary support from TAs, therapists and specialists

* A creative, flexible curriculum approach

* Visible progress and meaningful impact

* Warm, collaborative school communities

If you are passionate about helping children thrive, SEN is a truly fulfilling path.
