Job description

At Woodside, we specialise in educating young people with an Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC) and know that by putting each individual at the centre of their learning journey, we are able to craft a unique and fulfilling experience for each student that will allow them to independently contribute to society, embrace life long learning and achieve without a ceiling.

We are excited to announce that we have a vacancy for a Qualified Teacher, specialising in English, to work with 11-19 year olds at our Charley road campus in Loughborough delivering sessions in line with Rising Stars Levels 1-6 and towards Functional Skills Level 1 and 2 qualifications.

We're looking for passionate individuals with experience of helping to develop a child in line with targets from their academic and pastoral plans.

• The successful candidate will be delivering small group sessions at a base specifically crafted for a small group of students. This “homely” feeling enables us to nurture our students and provide them with the best education experience once we’ve successfully engaged with them emotionally. Therefore, we need practitioners who can build trusting relationships and provide security to our vulnerable learners and who are able to communicate clearly, confidently and demonstrate resilience in the face of high pressure circumstances.
