Early years special educational needs teacher to Steiner school teacher
An early years special educational needs teacher already meets 74% of what the Steiner school teacher role asks for. The move turns on 7 required skills not yet in the profile.
37/ 100
1 How much of what a Steiner school teacher is expected to do is already part of an early years special educational needs teacher’s work. Directional: the figure for the reverse move differs, because moving into a speciality is not the same problem as moving out of one. 2 Every skill the Steiner school teacher role is recorded as needing, required and optional together. What these numbers mean.
Why this move works
A Steiner school teacher role treats 22 of its required skills as things an early years special educational needs teacher already does. You would walk in with these on day one.
- adapt teaching to student's capabilities
- apply intercultural teaching strategies
- apply teaching strategies
- assess students
- assessment processes
- assist students in their learning
What stands in the way is 7 required skills the profile does not yet cover. Table 3 groups them; Table 4 says which to take first.
Table 2 · What you already bring
Of the 40 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A Steiner school teacher role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of an early years special educational needs teacher background worth leading with.
- already held organise creative performance management skills
- already held common children's diseases health and welfare
- already held implement care programmes for children assisting and caring
- already held assist children in developing personal skills assisting and caring
- already held attend to children's basic physical needs assisting and caring
- already held workplace sanitation services
All 40 carried skills, including the 22 the Steiner school teacher role treats as required.
Table 3 · What you may need to learn
The 15 missing skills fall into 6 areas of the ESCO skill hierarchy, numbered in the order worth working in. Areas carrying the most required skills come first, and inside each one the required skills sit above the optional ones. Nothing here is a verdict on you: it is a list of what this particular job asks for that your current one does not.

How this record was compiled
Both occupations are taken from ESCO, which lists the skills and knowledge each occupation is expected to have and marks every one required or optional. Nothing here is a prediction about hiring, and nothing here knows that a particular employer wants a particular certificate. Treat Table 3 as a starting point for your own research rather than a syllabus. The full method states what these figures can and cannot tell you.
