Your primary focus will be on leading our English curriculum, crafting and delivering engaging lessons tailored for learners at pre-entry and level 2.

This model encompasses a comprehensive learning experience, including work placements, essential skills in Maths and English, and various enriching activities aimed at preparing our learners for adulthood. While your primary responsibility will be to teach English, you will also collaborate with fellow educators to enhance their English instruction.

With class sizes ranging from 5 to 7 learners, you will have the opportunity to build meaningful relationships with each student.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Collaborate with the teaching team to integrate functional English into personalized learning plans.

  • Track and document learner progress, both academically and in relation to their Education, Health and Care Plans (EHCP).
  • Engage closely with learners to inspire and motivate them to achieve their full potential.
  • Provide enriching learning experiences, whether in the classroom or community settings, working one-on-one or in small groups.
  • Guide Learning Support Assistants to effectively assist learners.
  • Develop individualized curricula that cater to the unique needs of each learner, adapting your teaching style as necessary.
  • Identify and address any risks to learner progress, demonstrating a commitment to understanding each young person's needs.

Qualifications and Skills:

  • Demonstrated patience, empathy, and resilience—essential for supporting neurodiverse learners.
  • Strong communication abilities to interact effectively with learners, parents, and other stakeholders.
  • Experience with EHCPs and tailoring curricula to meet individual learner outcomes.
  • Flexibility and adaptability to navigate the dynamic nature of the educational environment.
  • A genuine passion for educating individuals with diverse needs.

Benefits:

  • Holidays: Work during term time with paid annual leave for non-working weeks.
  • Pension Scheme: Contribute 5% with an additional 3% from the employer.
  • Professional Development: Access to comprehensive learning and development opportunities.
  • Employee Discounts: Enjoy various discounts through our employee benefits platform.
  • Wellbeing Support: Prioritizing your mental health with access to support services.
  • Cycle2Work: Participate in a scheme to purchase a bicycle at a reduced cost.
  • DBS Coverage: We will cover the cost of your enhanced DBS check.

After completing 12 months of service, you will also qualify for our Medicash scheme, which covers a variety of health and wellbeing expenses. Additionally, you will receive life assurance equivalent to twice your annual salary and access to further discounts.

Please note that successful candidates will undergo pre-employment checks, including an enhanced DBS check and reference validation, as part of our commitment to safer recruitment practices.

At Phoenix Learning & Care Group, we are dedicated to fostering a diverse workforce and creating an inclusive environment for all team members, ensuring everyone can bring their authentic selves to work.
