Unqualified PSHE Teacher

Who are Fair Ways and what do we stand for?

At Fair Ways we believe in making a difference through passionate care, support and education. Together we aim to build an institution that makes a difference to society and leaves a legacy greater than ourselves and our contributions. Our values sit at the heart of everything we do; we measure our wealth by the difference we make, rather than the profit we make.

Fair Ways is a leading children’s services charity based in the Solent, delivering Fostering, Education, Residential and Family services and cares for over 400 children, families, young people and vulnerable adults each year.

We are looking for an Unqualified PSHE Teacher, based at our school located in Eastleigh. Successful candidates will provide support to our young people with additional needs, specifically learners with Autism Spectrum Conditions (ASC). Our students will have all been identified as having Autism and ASC associated needs and as such are better suited to 1:1 or 2:1 learning with a bespoke curriculum based on their individual needs.

Students are placed with Fair Ways when most other mainstream or specialist schools have failed them. As such, they are likely to have been out of education for a long period of time, having exhausted multiple placements.

As an Unqualified Teacher at our School you will be involved in exciting and rewarding things like:

• Individualised lesson planning, delivery of lessons, marking of work and knowing when and how to differentiate appropriately using approaches which enable students to be taught effectively.
• Helping young people draw up action plans for employment, education and training and support them to achieve these goals. This will include a high standard of planning and delivery of the programme whilst supporting the individual needs of the student.
• Participating in the completion and monitoring of all student assessments and being accountable for student’s attainment, progress, and outcomes with your subject area.
• Supporting the implementation and delivery of each students Individual Education Plan (IEP) and Personal Education Plan (PEP) by providing relevant data to monitor progress, set targets and plan lessons.
• Liaising and negotiating with Employers, Colleges, Universities, and training providers to provide the best opportunities for our students.
• Demonstrating an understanding of, and a willingness to learn, how the young peoples’ early life experiences and how such experiences may result in, or contribute to, severe challenging behaviour.
• Recognising and accepting the possible need to intervene using positive handling strategies to make incidents safe, and to work as part of a consistent team.

All candidates must have a full driving license and have access to the use of a car. Successful candidates will be required to provide an enhanced Disclosure (DBS). This disclosure cost will be met by Fair Ways.

Fair Ways are unable to provide VISA sponsorship for this role and all applicants will need to be able to provide evidence of right to work in the UK.

Whilst we value the knowledge and understanding that experience and qualifications can bring, we also know that some of our best people have come to us from unrelated backgrounds. These people already held our core values at heart, and with the dedication of our amazing in-house training and development team, we have supported the rest!

Teaching roles within our frontline services help achieve our mission of making a difference through passionate care, support, and education. To support this, you will be required to have, or be working towards a minimum of the following qualification levels:
