Enrichment Teacher in Middlesbrough

We are seeking a passionate and imaginative individual to lead our Enrichment Curriculum. This role involves working closely with teachers across a range of subjects to design and deliver additional activities and learning opportunities that help learners uncover new skills, interests and talents. We’re looking for someone with a creative background—someone who can bring projects to life through music, drama, the arts, or other expressive mediums. The ideal candidate will be confident using their initiative, excited by the idea of being handed a blank canvas and motivated by the challenge of shaping an enrichment offer that sparks intellectual curiosity, creativity and artistic expression.

This role is offered on a permanent, full-time basis working 37 hours per week.
