The post holder will join a well-regarded and high performing Education Welfare team alongside our already established EHE Advisor, ensuring home educated children are receiving a high-quality education which allows them to reach their potential.
As an EHE Advisory Teacher you would be responsible for providing advice and guidance to parents/carers wishing to, or who are currently, electively home educating their children in Pembrokeshire.

You will have qualified teacher status in addition to experience of identifying and developing effective educational resources.
You will need emotional resilience for this role, and be committed to Pembrokeshire County Council's values.
