The school caters for students who are unable to access mainstream education and have very complex mental health needs. The students will have suffered many adverse childhood experiences including trauma and toxic stress and require a therapeutic approach to their learning and support.

We support Education providers that educate children and young people who for many reasons cannot access any other formal educational settings – these are the most vulnerable, at risk and hard to reach in our community.

  • Although this particular role requires QTS/QTLS we want to hear from all Teachers no matter what your qualification is
  • The passion to teach and inspire young people during a crucial stage of their personal and academic development.
