Job description

Up to £51,763 + Excellent benefits

Our teachers are fulfilled by the idea of making even the smallest positive changes in our young people, so we celebrate the little things. There's lots of ups and downs, and to some of our young people, sitting through a lesson can be a big win. We call these huge small victories, and whilst they may seem small on the surface, they add up to make a big difference.

Get out what you put in

You'll be working with children and young people with Autistic Spectrum Disorder, Social, Emotional and Mental Health needs. You'll help them learn, develop their abilities, and raise their self-esteem. Resilience and dedication are essential, but the huge small victories you achieve will be something you're really proud of.

It can be a tough journey, but the positive steps forward will more than make up for it. As a Teacher at Witherslack Group, you'll receive all the support you need to succeed, from in-house psychologists to teaching assistants and therapy professionals. Your colleagues will be experts in their fields, the school environments will be well-resourced, and we'll support you every step of the way to build a rewarding teaching career.

One of the best environments in SEND

You'll join Ashbrooke School, one of the leading SEN settings in the North East. A purpose-built school with specialist classrooms, extensive grounds, sporting facilities, and a new primary provision. Ashbrooke supports young people with ADHD, ASD, SEMH, and SLCN, and was recently rated Outstanding by Ofsted.

What we do for you

We know you're going to do great things. For your hard work and commitment, we reward you with the best salary and benefits package in the education sector. With us, you'll bring learning to life and make a genuine difference to our young people, plus you'll get:

• Training: Full induction and on-the-job training

• Holiday: Full school holidays off

• Progression: Most of our head teachers and leaders have been promoted from within

• Flexible benefits: You can tailor benefits like life insurance (see our benefits here)

• Pension: Range of pension options including Teachers' Pension and attractive alternatives

• Wellbeing: Tools and advice, including employee assistance programs

• Medical cover: Reimbursements for opticians, dentists, and more

• Facilities: Beautiful working environments with top facilities

• Referral bonus: £1,000 for each friend you recommend

Bring your whole-self to work

Our young people come from diverse backgrounds and have different needs, and our workforce reflects that diversity. You'll be more than a Science Teacher; you'll connect with pupils through:

• Your 'can do' attitude and teamwork

• Your passion for Science and its impact

• Your ability to relate your subject to each pupil

• Your enthusiasm and expertise to develop your department

• Previous teaching experience and Qualified Teacher Status
