I know you're out there! You're a qualified teacher but would enjoy a change. You see the value of learning and enjoy creatively engaging pupils who can't always get it right.

You value creativity and its purpose in learning and development. Want to know more? Of course you do!

We need a subject leader for English from September 2019 to join our friendly, supportive and creative team working with secondary aged pupils who have social, emotional, mental health and associated learning difficulties.
