Manor School is an outstanding special school located within the vibrant community of the London Borough of Brent. Proudly part of The Rise Partnership Trust, we cater for 220 incredible primary-aged children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND).

And our third Site is at Canterbury Road, Kilburn. We are recruiting for a Class teacher at the Kensal Rise (Chamberlayne Rd) site at this time but would like to share that in the future, as a three site school, staff may be asked to work at any of the three sites.

The successful applicant will be working in a provision supporting children with complex communication, behaviour and sensory processing needs. Previous experience of SEND is therefore essential. Experience of a specialist setting is also highly desirable
