QTS Science Teacher in Bradford, Devon

We encourage you to submit your application as soon as possible.

Our teachers are fulfilled by the idea of making even the smallest positive changes in our young people, so we celebrate the little things. There are lots of ups and downs, and to some of our young people, sitting through a lesson can be a big win.

You will be working with children and young people with Autistic Spectrum Disorder/Social, Emotional and Mental Health needs. You will be there to help them learn, develop their abilities and raise their self-esteem. As a Teacher at Witherslack Group, you will get all the support you need to succeed, from in-house psychologists to teaching assistants and therapy professionals. Your colleagues will be the best at what they do, the school environments will be well-resourced and we will be with you every step of the way, helping you build a rewarding teaching career.

Broadbeck is built on the principle of true community and inclusion. Located at the heart of a residential community in Yorkshire, staff provide young people, who have often been unable to integrate into their local community, with the opportunity to belong, progress and contribute. Broadbeck is also a distinct community in itself, with education, care and therapy staff creating an environment of support and stability. We have recently been recognised as Good by Ofsted.

With us, you will get to bring learning to life and make a genuine difference to the lives of our young people plus you will get:

• Training: A full induction and on the job training
• Holiday: You will work hard at WG, so you will be rewarded with full school holidays
• Career Development: Most of our head teachers and leaders have been promoted from within our group
• Flexible Benefits: Meaning you can increase/decrease benefits such as life insurance
• Pension: We offer a range of pensions to suit your lifestyle needs including Teachers Pension and our very attractive TPS alternative
• Medical Cover: So you can claim back the cost of things like an opticians or dentist appointment and a host of high-street discounts
• Beautiful Working Environments: With the very best facilities
• Recommend a Friend Scheme: That offers a £1,000 bonus every time

Our young people come from all walks of life, diverse backgrounds and with different needs and our workforce reflects that diversity, so that our teams can engage, encourage and inspire our young people to be themselves. You will be more than a science teacher; you will be able to connect with our pupils because of:

• Your can-do attitude - a team player who rolls up their sleeves to help others
• The ability to relate your subject to each pupil and build great relationships with your class
• You will also need previous teaching experience and have Qualified Teacher Status

At Witherslack Group, inclusion is part of who we are. As a specialist provider of education and care for children and young people with special educational needs, we understand the importance of embracing individuality and championing difference - especially when it comes to neurodiversity. We celebrate diverse perspectives, lived experiences, and the unique strengths that each person brings to our community.

By building a diverse and inclusive team, we are better able to support the children, young people and families we serve and ensure every member of our team can thrive, grow, and be their authentic self.

The Witherslack Group is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of its young people. This post is subject to an enhanced DBS check (we will cover the cost) and an online search. We are an equal opportunities employer welcoming applications from all sections of the community.
