Job description

DescriptionEmployerLocation

Beaumont College supports special school leavers including those with complex autism and social and emotional challenges.

Some of our students have excellent language skills, while others may communicate in different ways. All have learning difficulties. For individuals in this group of students, they may have developed strategies for communication over their lives that aren’t as helpful or easy to understand as they reach adulthood. Working as part of a multidisciplinary team, our ethos and culture is to support our young people to develop strategies focusing on positive behaviours, reducing and ideally removing the need for our young people to deploy unhelpful strategies to communicate their needs, be heard, listened to and understood.

The role of the FE Teacher within the Access to Learning Pathway involves delivering high quality and person-centred sessions on a 1 : 1 basis or within small group sessions. This is a unique position which requires a teacher to write bespoke session plans, schemes of work and inspiring lessons tailored to the students interests.

You will work with identified students as part of a small team around the student, enabling and empowering them to prepare for fulfilling busy lives as young adults. Along the way, there will be fun, memories to make and a significant journey of ups and downs. As they graduate our young people demonstrate the progress they have made through their actions. And they have achieved this because they have been empowered by the staff who support them. Are you the next member of our amazing team?
