What skills and experience we're looking for

An exciting and impactful opportunity has arisen to shape the development of our English curriculum at our small 1:1 provision for seven students with complex needs. This is an opportunity to be part of a dynamic team and help shape the future success of Pathway’s provision and its children. We are happy to accept applications from candidates with QTS status and especially welcome experience from Primary (UKS2).

We are looking for an applicant who is able to deliver 1:1 English at both Functional Skills and GCSEs levels (training available). Due to the high levels of complex needs, most students will have significant gaps in their education and lessons will require adaptive teaching. The candidate will take a creative approach to teaching students according to their SEND needs, ensuring delivery of the school curriculum in a way that maximise students’ achievement and ability to develop. All students require an intensive nurturing and therapeutic approach to enable them to access the curriculum.
