  • Provide ongoing feedback to students, highlighting their strengths and identifying areas for improvement to encourage steady progress.
Requirements:
  • Previous experience teaching students with SEMH needs and behaviour challenges, ideally within a SEN setting or similar environment.
  • In-depth knowledge and expertise in construction practices, with the ability to teach a range of skills and adapt to students' specific needs.

  • A DBS on the Update Service or willingness to obtain one prior to starting.
  • Strong classroom management skills with a focus on creating a structured and positive learning environment that prioritises safety and engagement.
