2. No Experience? No Problem.

You don't need years of classroom experience to begin a fulfilling career in SEND education. Axcis welcomes candidates from all backgrounds, including:

• Graduates (including psychology, mental health, and social science)
• Early Career Teachers (ECTs) completing or recently finishing their induction
• Career changers
• Youth workers

If you're an ECT, Axcis can help you find placements that support your induction, build your confidence, and set the foundation for a long and rewarding teaching career. We understand the ECT journey and work hard to match you with schools that will genuinely invest in your development.

If you're passionate about supporting children and young people more broadly, many schools value attitude, empathy, and a willingness to learn just as highly as formal qualifications. We'll help you take that first step with confidence.

Please note: to register with Axcis you must already be living in the UK with the right to work in the UK, and be based within our service areas across England and South Wales.
