Blue Skies School are excited to be seeking a new Maths teacher to join their team.

As a unique, passionate and inspiring school, Blue Skies are looking for a teacher to match who is able to deliver Maths from Key Stage 3 through to (at least) GCSE specification. The successful candidate will have proven classroom skills, great communication, excellent teamwork, creativity, drive and compassion. 

Blue Skies is an independent special school, based in Medway, which offers a unique service to children and young adults aged 11-25 on the autism spectrum. It is an extremely caring school with a holistic approach towards education, catering for students in Medway, Kent and the surrounding areas.

With an average class size of 6-8, staff can make a meaningful impact on students’ lives. Working alongside a supportive and determined team who are passionate and committed to ensuring continuous development, the successful candidate would have the opportunity to develop their career and take on new challenges within a fun, positive and caring environment.

Experience of working with students on the autism spectrum is desirable, although it is not a requirement, as training will be given. We welcome applications from all teachers including those who are Early Career Teacher’s or currently within a mainstream environment who have an ambition and passion to work within a SEND school.

If you are looking for a role which offers you the opportunity to develop your skillset, whilst making a positive and lasting difference in this caring family environment then Blue Skies could be for you.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expect all staff to share this commitment. Offer of employment is subject to a satisfactory enhanced DBS, two references and a Health Declaration.
