Open Box Education Centre is a small independent Alternative Provision School providing a KS4 curriculum for students aged 14-16 for whom a mainstream school placement has not been possible or appropriate. Our small team of dedicated, caring and professional staff provide full-time education and therapeutic services for up to 20 students to help them grow in confidence, trust and self-esteem and experience success in their last years of secondary school.
We are now looking for a full-time skilled, dedicated and caring Maths teacher, who can also offer at least one additional teaching subject, to teach groups of 3-4 students as they study Entry Level Certificates, GCSEs and Functional Skills.
There is also an opportunity for an exceptional candidate with relevant experience to take on additional senior leadership responsibilities. Please indicate on the application if you wish to be considered for senior leadership responsibilities in addition to the role of Maths teacher.
What we can offer you:
- The chance to be part of a developing Alternative Provision school that is dedicated to supporting young people who have experienced trauma, rejection and exclusion by providing opportunities for achievement, acceptance as part of a community and hope for the future.
- A significant role in a caring, professional and collaborative small team of staff who are dedicated and committed to the success and welfare of all students.
- A small, busy, friendly, supportive and caring working environment.
This is an exciting time to join our team as we grow and develop innovative ways to meet the complex needs of vulnerable and challenging young people and the increasing local demand for high quality alternative provision. We welcome visits from prospective candidates. To arrange a visit, contact the Principal, Alison Dolan, via email: adolan@openboxeducation.org.uk or call on 01992 577 300.
This post is paid at M1-M6 and attracts an SEN allowance.
