We are seeking to appoint a motivated qualified teacher specialising in English working with KS3/4 with the ability to support KS5.

In our recent Ofsted inspection we were rated good. Students enjoy school; they say, I like doing schoolwork it acts as a break away from the fact that you are in hospital; it is probably the most normal part of being an inpatient. 'Staff have high expectations of students and they gently encourage them to try their best in every lesson. Students consider that the belief and constant encouragement from staff really helps their recovery
