Make a difference. Inspire potential. Help young people thrive.

We are looking for a passionate, creative and nurturing Teacher to join our specialist school in St Helens.

This is an exciting opportunity for an enthusiastic teacher who wants to make a genuine difference to the lives of young people with Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH) needs.

The role is offered on a temp-to-perm basis, providing an opportunity for the successful candidate to join the school initially on a temporary basis, with the potential to move into a permanent position.

We are particularly interested in teachers with experience or a passion for one or more of the following subject areas:

English - teaching up to GCSE level
Art - encouraging creativity, expression and confidence
PSHE - supporting personal development, wellbeing and life skills

We recognise that great teachers bring a range of skills, so we are happy to consider applicants with different subject specialisms and offer some flexibility around the areas of focus.


What makes our school special?

We offer a supportive, nurturing environment where relationships come first and every young person is valued as an individual.

Our school provides:

Small class sizes, allowing you to build meaningful relationships and deliver personalised learning.
A nurturing, supportive environment with a strong SEMH focus.
The opportunity to be creative and adapt learning to meet individual needs.
A rewarding role where you can make a real difference every day.
Extended school holidays, supporting a positive work-life balance.
A welcoming team committed to helping both pupils and staff succeed.


Who are we looking for?

We would love to hear from teachers who:

Are passionate about supporting young people with SEMH needs.
Can create engaging, inclusive and inspiring learning experiences.
Build positive relationships and understand the importance of consistency, patience and empathy.
Are flexible, adaptable and willing to think outside the box.
Have the ability to motivate young people and help them recognise their potential.

Experience of working in a specialist SEMH setting would be advantageous, but above all, we are looking for someone with the right attitude, commitment and passion for making a difference.

Interested?
