3 weeks ago


Devon, United Kingdom Devon County Council Full time

Required for September 2024.

Do you want to:
Make a real difference to some of the most vulnerable students in our area? 
• Express a passion for school sports, activities and outdoor pursuits helping our students gain confidence and enjoyment?
• Work for a high-trust organisation that values relationships and teamwork?

School for Inspiring Talents (SfIT) is keen to appoint two engaging Sports Teachers/Coaches with a passion for getting active and helping children experience the outdoors in ways that enhance their physical and mental health. You will nurture our unique cohort of students; engaging and inspiring them to overcomes barriers and set high expectations.

SfIT is an independent therapeutic day school for pupils aged 5-16 years who have experienced childhood trauma and/or adverse childhood experiences, exhibiting Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH) difficulties making it difficult for them to flourish within a mainstream setting. We currently have two school sites in Devon (Newton Abbot and Ashburton) and would like to employ a Sports Coach to lead sessions on each. It is likely, one will work with our younger students, the other older – however this is flexible based on the skill sets of applicants.

You will be proactive, resilient, and committed to striving for excellence, putting our students first. Our ideal candidate is someone who will understand the relational and therapeutic approach we take in supporting our students, always remaining professionally curious and knowing that behaviour is communication. You will also understand the need for our students to take part and have a go - thinking creatively about what you would want to offer be that climbing, canoeing etc. We are committed to training candidates who do not hold the right qualifications for these outdoor activities. 

This vacancy has come about due to our school becoming part of Outcomes First Group and having the ability to expand. This, therefore, is a fantastic opportunity to join a dynamic group of colleagues within a growing organisation, with the potential for further career opportunities and personal development. 

We welcome applications from qualified and unqualified teachers as well as experienced sports coaches or volunteers wishing to make their hobbies their job

Visits to our school to meet our team and students are actively encouraged; please email Sophie Warwick at to arrange a tour or with any further queries you may have.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expect all staff to share this commitment. This role requires an enhanced DBS disclosure.

Please complete the application form which can be downloaded from our website (CVs will NOT be accepted) and submit to:
