Class Teacher

As a Class Teacher, you will take responsibility for planning and delivering meaningful, engaging education for Key Stage 3 and 4 pupils working across a range of developmental levels.

You'll also play an active role in whole-school development and support the professional growth of colleagues. What You'll Be Doing

• Lead and inspire a class within the Nurture and Communication & Interaction provision
• Design and deliver personalised, flexible learning programmes for KS3 and KS4 pupils

• Strong understanding of curriculum frameworks and strategies for additional needs
• Ability to inspire, engage, and differentiate learning creatively
