Moorcroft School is looking for teachers to join our school from September 2024. We are a thriving and exceptional secondary special school with a strong and creative teaching team and have been judged as outstanding by Ofsted.

The school is a member of the Eden Academy Trust, which is a multi-academy, trust incorporating 9 special schools in the London Boroughs of Hillingdon, Harrow and in the North of England.
