Can you inspire your colleagues with your exciting, upbeat and fun classroom?

An affinity for pupils with behavioural, emotional and social difficulties is an essential quality for this challenging but rewarding opportunity. Applicants should be resilient, have high expectations, and a sense of humour. You must be able to build positive relationships with our pupils and think outside of the box. A strong character, growth mindset and positive ethos are essential characteristics that we are looking for.
