Simply Education is seeking a dynamic and resilient KS3 Science Teacher to join work in collaboratively in alternative provisions. The successful candidate will support vulnerable students with social, emotional, and mental health (SEMH) needs, fostering a positive learning environment and promoting academic success. This role requires adaptability, empathy, and a strong understanding of behaviour management strategies.

Due to the school striving for consistency, the successful Teacher must be able to commit to a full-time position on a long-term basis.
Key responsibilities.
Building Positive Relationships: Establishing trusting and positive relationships with students is essential. Teachers should create a supportive and nurturing environment where students feel safe to express themselves and seek help when needed.
Implementing Behaviour Management Strategies: This may involve using techniques such as positive reinforcement, de-escalation strategies, and conflict resolution skills.
Providing Emotional Support: Students with SEMH needs may require additional emotional support. Teachers should be empathetic listeners and provide encouragement and reassurance to help students cope with challenges and build resilience.
Assessment and Feedback: Develop and administer formative and summative assessments to evaluate students' understanding of scientific concepts. Provide constructive feedback to students to help them improve their knowledge and skills.
Curriculum Delivery: Design and deliver engaging and interactive lessons that align with the KS3 Science curriculum. This involves creating lesson plans, selecting appropriate teaching materials, and integrating hands-on activities and experiments to facilitate learning.
Requirements:
The ideal candidate will hold QTS or a relevant teaching qualification.
A BA in Science or a relevant topic.
