Sports Coach to SEN Classroom - Turn Your Skills into a New Career

"You've motivated, inspired, and supported others to reach their potential through sport - now imagine doing the same in a classroom"

We're looking for sports coaches, PE assistants, and youth activity leaders who want to use their teamwork, communication, and motivational skills to make a real difference in SEN and behavioural schools across Manchester.

You'll support children with autism, learning difficulties, and social or emotional needs - helping them develop confidence, communication, and resilience every day.

Why your skills are a perfect match:
* You know how to keep people engaged and motivated
* You understand teamwork and structure
* You bring energy, patience, and empathy to everything you do
* You can use physical activity to build confidence and connection

What we offer:
* Term-time hours (Mon-Fri, school hours only)
* Local placements across Manchester

* A chance to see your coaching skills transform children's lives

Whether you're looking for a new challenge or a pathway into teaching, this role lets you use everything you love about sport - teamwork, encouragement, and growth - to help children reach their full potential.

Apply today for an informal chat about how your sports background can lead to a rewarding career in SEND education.
