Monitor, assess, and record pupil progress, adapting teaching strategies where required.
Work collaboratively with support staff, parents, carers, and external professionals.
Contribute to creating a safe, inclusive, and nurturing school environment.
What We're Looking For
Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) – Essential.

Experience working with pupils with SEMH, SEND, or challenging behaviour is highly desirable.
Excellent classroom and behaviour management skills.
A patient, resilient, and empathetic approach.
Strong communication and teamwork skills.
A genuine passion for supporting vulnerable young people to achieve their full potential.
Knowledge of trauma-informed practice or restorative approaches would be advantageous.
Our staff are paid on a PAYE basis, so you can rest assured you're paying the correct level of Tax and National Insurance, with no hidden admin charges or umbrella deductions from your hard-earned pay.
