Due to an expansion of places being offered to SEN students across Kent and Medway, Fortis Trust seeks to appoint a full time teacher to the Bradfields Academy Pine Community.

Applicants should have a clear understanding of effective teaching, raising and sustaining achievement, and the care and support of complex individuals.
