This school is seeking a compassionate and dedicated Class Teacher with a passion for pastoral care. You will nurture and inspire their unique cohort of students, delivering exceptional learning and teaching that overcomes barriers and sets high expectations.

About the Role

This is an independent therapeutic day school for pupils 5–16 who have experienced childhood trauma and/or adverse childhood experiences and exhibit Social, Emotional, and Mental Health (SEMH) difficulties. These challenges often make it difficult for them to thrive in mainstream settings. This role is based at the Newton Abbot site, working with their younger students.

The ideal candidate will be proactive, resilient, and committed to putting students first. You will embrace their relational and therapeutic approach, remaining professionally curious and recognising that behaviour is a form of communication.

  • Support students' social, emotional, and academic development through a relational and therapeutic approach.
  • Maintain accurate records of student progress and contribute to planning, reports, and reviews.
  • Collaborate closely with colleagues and support staff to create a safe, inclusive, and stimulating learning environment.
  • Promote positive behaviour and resilience while understanding that behaviour is communication.

Requirements

  • UK Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) or equivalent.
  • Experience working with pupils with SEMH needs is desirable.
  • Commitment to a therapeutic, relational approach to education.

Why join?
