Why This Role?

  • Specialist Experience – Extend your expertise in mental health and autism in a supportive, specialist setting
  • Small Classes – Enjoy teaching in smaller groups, allowing for more focused and impactful teaching
  • Supportive Environment – Work within a trauma-informed school that prioritises both staff and student wellbeing
  • Flexible Hours – Benefit from an 8:45am – 3pm workday, with regular morning briefings and therapeutic support. Part time or full time.
