Are you motivated to work in a provision that really is more than a school where the vision is to improve the quality of life for all students? Are you enthused by the prospect of supporting an ethos where the holistic needs of every student are prioritised and where we strive to see the good in everyone?

We are looking for enthusiastic and highly skilled applicants with experience of either special, mainstream or alternative provision settings, with the ability to deliver high calibre learning experiences in our brand new satellite provision. This post will be based full time at Breckenbrough Woodland Centre, Skutterskelfe, TS15 0JR.

Breckenbrough School caters for boys aged 9 to 19, who are primarily diagnosed with Autism, PDA, ADHD, and other complex needs. As a school with a Quaker ethos, we pride ourselves on our shared values of equality, respect, tolerance, honesty, forgiveness, and conflict resolution, as we strive to attain the best outcomes possible for all our students.

Breckenbrough Woodland Centre will provide alternative provision for both Breckenbrough and non-Breckenbrough students, within a safe, nurturing, inclusive and inspiring woodland-based learning environment. The aim of the provision is to achieve positive engagement in education, development of wider employability skills and positive and sustainable progression pathways.

If you have a genuine love of learning and an appreciation of how a nurturing and caring environment can support all children to grow into happy, healthy, and successful individuals, you will make a great addition to our team.

• You have a knowledge of successful strategies and/or the motivation to develop these in meeting the needs of young people with Autism or other complex needs including trauma, school avoidance
