SEMH Teacher New

A secondary pupil referral unit in Manchester are looking for a full-time teacher to take on a position in which multiple subjects will need to be taught. The students are aged 11-16 and are all currently out of mainstream schooling due to various social, emotional and mental health needs, and so need additional support when in school.

You will also be expected to lead a group of support staff within the classroom to ensure lessons run smoothly and the needs of each student are met.

• Be flexible with your work style and work in a way that is best for each student.

• Have a team teach qualification/equivalent qualification or be willing to undertake this during your time at the school.
• Be confident in working and supporting students independently.
• Be able to work alongside support staff to provide a comprehensive learning experience for students.
