An exciting opportunity for career development within a brand, new specialist school.

The core learning area depends on the expertise of the successful applicant in Communication, Language & Literacy or Mathematical Development.

An understanding of early childhood development and/or experience of teaching in an Early Years setting are desirable.

Experience of teaching pupils with additional needs is not essential; being creative, flexible and open to learning is.
