We're looking for a qualified Science Teacher to join our alternative provision, working with young people who are educated outside of mainstream school. Our pupils include those with EHCPs, permanent exclusions, and SEMH needs, and many have experienced significant disruption to their education.
This is a relationship-first role. You'll deliver engaging, accessible science teaching tailored to each pupil's level and needs — rebuilding confidence and re-engaging young people with learning, rather than working to rigid attainment targets. Sessions may be delivered on a small-group or one-to-one basis, at our dedicated setting, in community schools, or in home- or care-home-based placements.
What You'll Do
- Plan and deliver science lessons adapted to individual starting points and abilities
- Build positive, trusting relationships with pupils who have complex needs and may face significant barriers to engaging with education
- Support pupils' engagement, confidence, and progress at their own pace
- Follow our safeguarding procedures and contribute to a safe, supportive environment
About You
- QTS is essential
- Experience or a genuine interest in working with SEMH, EHCP, or previously excluded pupils
- Patient, adaptable, and calm under pressure
- Committed to safeguarding and promoting pupil welfare
- Enhanced DBS on the Update Service (or willingness to obtain one) – essential
- Safeguarding training (or willingness to complete it) – essential
Pay: £36.00-£45.00 per hour
Application question(s):
- Do you hold QTS?
- Do you have experience working with pupils with SEND and/or SEMH?
