If you believe that all children deserve access to an outstanding education regardless of the barriers that this may present, then we would love to hear from you!, The role of Nurture Teacher includes daily teaching of a number of subjects including English, Maths and Science to a class of Key Stage 3 pupils. Therefore, the post would be most suited to an experienced KS2 teacher or a KS3 core subject specialist. We also welcome applications from SEN teachers. QTS is desirable but not mandatory.
