About the Role

At Closeburn House School, we believe that great teachers do far more than deliver lessons—they unlock potential, nurture resilience and empower young people to believe in themselves.

We're looking for an enthusiastic, creative and compassionate Teacher to join our dedicated team on a maternity cover basis. This is an exciting opportunity to become part of a specialist setting where relationships matter, individuality is celebrated, and every achievement—big or small—is recognised and valued.

As a Teacher at Closeburn House School, you'll create engaging and meaningful learning experiences that inspire curiosity, build confidence and enable pupils to thrive academically, socially and emotionally.

You'll adapt your teaching to meet individual needs, helping pupils overcome barriers to learning while celebrating their unique strengths and successes. Working collaboratively with colleagues, families and external professionals, you'll play an important role in ensuring every young person receives the support, encouragement and opportunities they need to flourish.

No two days are ever the same. One moment you'll be delivering dynamic classroom experiences; the next, you'll be guiding a pupil through a challenge, celebrating a breakthrough moment, or contributing to innovative approaches that shape the future of the school.

What you will be doing

Planning and delivering engaging lessons that inspire and motivate pupils
Preparing, assessing and monitoring pupil progress and achievement
Supporting pupils academically, socially and emotionally to help them succeed
Preparing pupils for examinations and supporting assessment processes
Providing guidance and encouragement to support personal growth and wellbeing
Building positive relationships with parents, carers, colleagues and external professionals
Contributing to school development, improvement initiatives and curriculum planning
Safeguarding and promoting the welfare, health and safety of all pupils

About you

A qualified and passionate teacher with a commitment to inclusive education
Creative and engaging in their teaching approach
An excellent communicator who builds positive relationships
Committed to helping every young person achieve their potential
Resilient, adaptable and positive in a dynamic environment
Motivated to continue learning and developing professionally
A collaborative team player who values shared success
Passionate about making a lasting difference in young people’s lives
Driving licence required
