GCSE English Teacher (Maternity Cover) at Rivers Education Support Centre

It will be for a fixed period of 01^st January - 31^st August 2027, with the potential of extending until 31/12/27.This will be to cover a Maternity Leave.

The role is based at our KS4 Centre in Hoddesdon teaching year 10 and 11 pupils, who have a confident understanding of the curriculum and excellent subject knowledge. These roles are ideal for dedicated professionals who have a passion for supporting young people who face challenges in mainstream education.

Although supporting our young people can be challenging, the rewards are immense as we see them develop and succeed in reaching their full potential, gaining educational outcomes, and returning to mainstream wherever possible. The work can be demanding at times, but there is a high staff to pupil ratio; classes are small (max of 5 pupils) and always with TA support.

We offer a supportive management team and the opportunity to effect real change and witness rapid progress.

We are looking to appoint a dynamic and adaptable teacher to teach English part-time (4 days per week). The non-working day must be a Wednesday due to the current timetable.

Candidates must have experience teaching GCSE English.

Rivers ESC works with a varied cohort of pupils including children classed as missing education, permanently excluded from mainstream schools, and many of the pupils have social, emotional, and behavioural difficulties (SEBD).
