• Working collaboratively with support staff, SENCOs and pastoral teams

• Hold QTS or QTLS (essential)
• Have experience working in an SEMH, PRU or Alternative Provision setting (highly desirable)
• Be calm, consistent and confident with behaviour management

• Competitive daily rates, paid weekly
• Long‑term and day‑to‑day opportunities available
• Supportive, specialist environments with smaller class sizes
