    On-campus there are three secure care houses, a close support house & a semi-independent living cottage.

    Young people who live with us continue their education in our school, on campus, or attend further education out with the campus.

    GSC offers employees a great benefits package and you will be joining an enthusiastic and dedicated team.

    Young people referred to our houses have experienced significant difficulties in their lives, and many will have faced traumatic and harmful situations and may be experiencing psychological distress; We offer a place of safety and nurture where we support young people and their families, alongside the professionals involved in their lives, to make sense of these experiences and to build hope, coping skills and goals for the future.

    An opportunity has arisen to join our Education team as a Teacher on a full-time, permanent basis.

    Teachers contribute to ensuring that the climate and learning environment at GSC is tailored and responsive to the learning needs and additional support needs of young people as learners.

    We endeavour to ensure our curriculum offers scope for our young people to extend their learning beyond subject areas through vocational and interdisciplinary work and learning across a broad range of contexts.

    The centre embraces the concept of a 24-hour curriculum within which young people can gain recognition for achievements within and out with the school day.

    As a result, we are able to offer our young people achievement opportunities within the Broad General Education and the Senior Phase curriculum, as well as through wider achievement awards such as the Duke of Edinburgh and vocational subjects.

    We are seeking to appoint an enthusiastic, self-motivated & hard-working English/General Subjects Teacher who has a genuine passion for working with young people.

    You will be a caring, child-centred and resilient individual with a motivation to be a positive role model and make a difference in the lives of vulnerable young people.

    You will work as part of our strong and dedicated Education team to support young people to meet their needs, achieve their goals and build hope for their future.

    If you have experience with working with young people and/or young people with additional support needs within a teaching environment, we would love to hear from you.
