The posting

Are you an experienced secondary school teacher looking to take the next step into SEND leadership? Thamesmead School is seeking a talented and committed Deputy SENDCO to join us in January 2027. Working closely alongside our SENDCO, you'll play a key role in the operational leadership of our SEND Department, helping to shape provision for students with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities while continuing to teach across the full ability range in KS3 and KS4.

What the role involves

  • Deputising for the SENDCO and helping lead the day-to-day running of the SEND Department
  • Supporting the identification, assessment and provision for students with SEND
  • Advising and coaching Teaching Assistants and subject staff on effective inclusive practice
  • Line managing SEND TAs and helping build a strong, collegiate team ethos
  • Liaising with external agencies (Educational Psychologists, Speech and Language services, and more) and attending Annual Reviews
  • Holding a caseload of Key SEND students, writing and reviewing IEPs, and reporting on progress
  • Supporting exam access arrangements and contributing to staff CPD on SEND
  • Teaching across KS3 and KS4 on a 50% timetable, continuing to develop your own classroom practice

What we're looking for

  • Qualified Teacher Status and experience of successful secondary teaching
  • Experience teaching pupils with a wide range of SEND needs
  • Excellent working knowledge of how to meet SEND pupils' needs, and understanding of EHCPs
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to build relationships across the school community
  • The ambition and initiative to grow into SEND leadership
  • A relevant SEN qualification (e.g. L7 in SpLD) is desirable but not essential — we will support your development

This role offers a rare combination of meaningful leadership responsibility, and direct mentoring from an experienced SENDCO, all while keeping a foothold in the classroom. It's an ideal stepping stone for a teacher ready to build a career in SEND leadership.

Thamesmead School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people, and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Employment is subject to a satisfactory enhanced DBS disclosure.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
