Overview

TeacherActive are working in partnership with a number of Secondary Schools across the Warwickshire to recruit for SEND Behaviour Support & Restorative Practice Leads. This is a fantastic opportunity to work within Inclusion and Behaviour Support departments, focusing on restorative practices and helping the most vulnerable students succeed in their education.

Main Purpose of the Role

To lead restorative approaches and provide consistent, structured behaviour and pastoral support to students with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND). You’ll work closely with staff, parents, and students to support behaviour regulation, reintegration, and academic reflection — ensuring barriers to learning are addressed and positive outcomes are achieved.

Other Duties

Maintain safeguarding standards and promote student wellbeing at all times.

Candidate Requirements
