Small Group ‘Access’ Teacher

We are looking to appoint an enthusiastic and inspirational teacher to join our ‘Access’ team. You will teach English, Maths and Humanities to small classes of students in Y7 and Y8, who arrive at secondary school below NC Level 3 and who experience barriers to learning. Students in our small groups have a range of special education needs. We have a special facility for children with speech and language and communication difficulties; many of whom are in the access groups.

This is an exciting opportunity to join our vibrant, over-subscribed school on the south coast, near Brighton. Life at PCS does not stand still and we constantly seek innovative ways to improve standards. You will have the ability to motivate and inspire students and will be relentless in the pursuit of the highest standards of progress for every student, regardless of their ability. PCS is a happy, stimulating place to work and you will be joining a hard-working and dynamic staff team, who are supportive of one another and have a ‘can-do’ approach to challenges. We are no ordinary school and believe nothing is impossible! We pride ourselves on our excellent induction programme. We provide constant, high quality CPD and all staff are passionate about sharing good practice.

As a Co-operative Trust School we place values at the heart of everything we do and were proud to be awarded Level One Rights Respecting School status by UNICEF, who found our ethos of mutual respect ‘inspiring.’

If you are looking for an opportunity that will excite and challenge you, and have boundless energy and resilience, then we look forward to receiving your application. We would welcome applications from primary trained teachers.
