PRU PE Teacher – South London
A specialist Pupil Referral Unit (PRU) in South London is looking for an enthusiastic and resilient PE Teacher to join their team from September.
This is an excellent opportunity for a PE Teacher who understands the power of sport and physical activity to improve engagement, behaviour, confidence and wellbeing among pupils who have struggled within mainstream education.
The Role
As a PRU PE Teacher, you will deliver engaging and accessible PE lessons to pupils with a range of SEMH, behavioural and additional learning needs. You will use sport as a tool to build relationships, develop self-esteem and encourage pupils to re-engage with education.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You will:
- Plan and deliver engaging PE lessons adapted to individual needs and abilities
- Deliver a broad range of sporting and physical activities
- Use sport to develop teamwork, resilience, confidence and positive behaviour
- Build strong, trusting relationships with pupils who may be disengaged from education
- Manage challenging behaviour using calm, consistent and restorative approaches
- Encourage participation from pupils who may have negative experiences of education
- Track pupil progress and contribute to personalised learning plans
- Work closely with pastoral, SEN and wider support teams
