**The role**

As a dynamic and motivated STEM/Science Teacher you already have a passion for making a difference in the lives of children and young people.

**Who we are looking for**

You will be a passionate tutor and a great communicator, as comfortable talking to young adults with autism, learning difficulties and complex needs as you are with contributing to the college’s vision and direction.

Our schools and colleges are unique environments, each one having its own special atmosphere and range of opportunities and resources. Our Tutors enjoy becoming part of their college ‘family’, exploring the potential of the building and environment and gettingto know the brilliant young people in our care.

You will enjoy building these caring relationships as well as liaising with fellow professionals, whether they are colleagues in the same school or they work in the children’s previous educational establishments.
