Do you have what it takes to adapt in a rewarding environment, being part of a supportive and professional team?

Have you ever thought about working in a specialist education setting such as an alternative provision, PRU, or SEMH School?

Most of the positions lead to permanent jobs, offering a brilliant way to kick-start your career and build a portfolio of experience that helps you get that dream job you studied so hard for...
