We are recruiting a Health and Social Care Teacher for a well-regarded Alternative Provision school, working with students aged 11-16 who have been excluded from mainstream education.

This is a part-time role covering Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday each week, 9:00am-2:30pm, with the opportunity for the right candidate to move from supply into a permanent position.

Class sizes are small and supportive, with a maximum of 8 students. From September, the group will start at just 3 students, giving you the space to build strong relationships and deliver genuinely personalised teaching.

This is a nurturing Alternative Provision setting where behaviour across the school is generally good, and staff are well supported. The owner/headteacher is highly hands-on, visible day-to-day, and known for being passionate about both student outcomes and staff wellbeing.

It's an ideal environment for a teacher who wants to make a real difference with vulnerable or previously excluded young people, in a setting where small class sizes allow for genuine, individualised support.

• Experience teaching Health and Social Care (KS3/KS4)
• Level 3 qualification (or above) in Health and Social Care desirable
• Experience working with, or a strong interest in, students with SEMH needs or those who have experienced exclusion from mainstream school
• A calm, patient, and relationship-focused approach to behaviour management
• Enhanced DBS on the Update Service (or willingness to apply for one)

• Competitive daily rate: £180-£250 per day
• Part-time hours ideal for work-life balance (3 days per week)
• Small class sizes (maximum of 8 students)
• Supportive, hands-on leadership team
• Genuine opportunity to progress from supply to a permanent contract
• Immediate start available for the right candidate (7th September)
