Further details about the role
As part of Delta, Education Trust, Harbour School Dorset’s vision is “Learning together in pursuit of happiness”. This means we really care whether pupils love or hate their learning, so we work hard to create a space where pupils learn together to become knowledgeable, self-aware, independent and happy people who make a positive difference, wherever life takes them. Are you an enthusiastic individual who can bring this vision to life and make a real difference to children’s lives?
2022 was quite the year for us at Harbour School Dorset; we moved into a brand new school building and supported the 30 students already in place. Now we are embarking on the next stage of growth, increasing our staffing team to support the 50 new students that have joined us this September.
Dan our Headteacher and his senior team are always looking for awesome people, and right now are looking for Teachers to make a difference to children with ASC and social, emotional and mental health needs and giving them the opportunities they deserve is a job like no other.
We require someone who can take an innovative approach to achieving the desired results for our students and who can empower young people to see the importance of qualifications as a foundation to a successful journey in life.

Learning can look different for everyone; learning is continuous and enabled by the broad curriculum, therapeutic interventions, and the environment the school and staffing team create. It’s only through your awesome teaching that we will create that environment together to ensure the pupils progress towards a happy life that they can enjoy.
