    An exciting opportunity has arisen within our MNERS Team for a temporary fixed term (0.8FTE Mon-Thurs) qualified English Teacher to join us.

    Our dedicated Medical Needs Education & Reintegration Service (MNERS) specialises in supporting school age students who are unable to attend their school for health related reasons.

    As part of this role, you will teach KS3 and KS4 English in small groups using online platforms or via individual support. All MNERS lessons are currently delivered using MS Teams, requiring you to work remotely, alongside attendance at Wiltshire Council hub bases for team meetings and training. The work may also include support for students accessing other on-line teaching packages and who need bespoke assistance via outreach support and will entail travel within Wiltshire. You will plan and deliver effective lessons and use a range of assessment strategies to monitor progress for students. You will work closely with schools and, where appropriate, support students' re-integration back into mainstream schooling alongside attending multi-agency meetings with key partner agencies such as schools, health and CAMHS.

    We are seeking an experienced qualified Teacher with a proven track record of supporting learners to achieve. You will have experience of using a virtual classroom and of supporting vulnerable young people and those with complex needs. A strong understanding of the principles of safeguarding children and young people, the use of escalation processes and multi-agency working is essential. With excellent interpersonal skills, you will have the ability to engage and motivate children and young people with a creative and flexible approach.
