Dc's school advertised for a Special Needs teacher but hasn't been able to recruit.
Dc attends a special needs "provision" (new word for unit!) at a mainstream primary. It is a great school - outstanding according to OFSTED. The Head is fantastic and the whole school has a great ethos of inclusion (whether the kid is G&T, has ESOL/SEN etc).
A fab school in a good residential area should surely attract loads of teachers?
Perhaps it is because there is lots of paperwork involved but I do feel sad that so few mainstream teachers want to specialise in SEN.
