We are looking for an experienced practitioner with relevant trade qualifications, recent industry experience, and the passion, knowledge and skills to deliver Entry Level 3- Level 2 qualifications to young people with a range of special educational needs. You will need to have enthusiasm and patience to personalise learning and have the communication skills needed to make network links with local industry to help our students’ transition from sixth form to employment or further training.
