Our challenge is to help them build the confidence, knowledge and skills to unlock their potential. This role will suit a teacher who is caring, understanding and can demonstrate energy and enthusiasm with a strong positive and relational behaviour management ethos.

- has a flexible approach and able to meet the changing needs of our young people;
- is able to deliver a curriculum in engaging and creative ways;
- makes learning exciting, motivating and interesting;
- has excellent classroom management and pastoral skills;
- is able to contribute fully to the life of the school.
If you are a good team player, who is motivated, patient, resilient, understanding and have the ability to establish a rapport with young people in a busy and lively setting, this may be the job for you. You will be joining an outstanding, hardworking and friendly team of staff.
