We’re working with a specialist setting in Middlesbrough that supports pupils with social, emotional, and mental health (SEMH) needs. They’re on the lookout for a dedicated classroom teacher who can create a safe, consistent space for learners who’ve often faced more than their fair share of challenges.

-
Building strong relationships based on trust, respect, and consistency
-
Planning flexible, engaging lessons with a trauma-informed lens

Working closely with TAs, support staff, and external agencies
What you’ll need:
-
QTS or equivalent teaching qualification
-
Experience in SEMH or PRU settings (or mainstream with high-need pupils)
-
A positive, empathetic approach to behaviour management
-
Confidence in adapting lessons to suit a range of learning styles
-
A thick skin, a big heart, and a genuine drive to make a difference
