We are looking for an experienced and knowledgeable practitioner who can take a holistic approach to supporting young people with a unique set of circumstances, working 1:1 with young people in liaison with parents / carers to identify support needs and barriers to learning, and address these creatively and flexibly using innovative strategies.

  • Demonstrating an attitude of open\-mindedness and a willingness to develop existing knowledge and skills to adapt practice within an educational role, and contributing to the ongoing development of Flex Ed as a provision.
