KS3/4 English Teacher

Job introduction

The Hive Centre is the third site of Hill Park School. It is a provision for Secondary aged autistic students who have high anxiety, which prevents them accessing onsite provisions such as mainstream secondary schools or facilities co-located at mainstream secondary schools.

Many will have been home educated or accessed tutoring packages and need bespoke transition to a full time onsite model. Students at The Hive will be able to access an age related curriculum and achieve GCSE’s and other Secondary accreditations.

Paid weeks per year: 52 (inclusive of holiday entitlement)

Start date: As soon as possible

• have experience of teaching students working at GCSE level
• have SEND and/or specialist school experience
• are able to work in a less formal model of Secondary education
