FE Teacher

About The Company

Beaumont College, part of Ingfield Manor School Site, is a very special place and we are seeking to extend our work-family in response to increased demand for places at the college. If you have a passion to support some of the most vulnerable special school leavers to fulfil their potential through support for the planned, high-quality delivery of learning, this role is for you. Our students love to learn, and we love to see them make the progress that they are capable of, which not everyone thought was possible. You will have empathy and understanding for our students, alongside a supportive and ambitious vision for them to each achieve their potential.

You will benefit from small class sizes as a dedicated Learning Support Worker and high ratios of student support workers. This is intended to underpin highly personalised learning opportunities and interactions. You will also work alongside the expertise of a multi-disciplinary team including positive behaviour practitioners, nurses, assistive technologists, occupational and physiotherapists where relevant to the learner. Our learning support roles are term time only, and you will be supported to access training as a teacher but also in multidisciplinary team working.
