Northamptonshire & Surrounding Areas | Full-Time & Long-Term Opportunities | Booked via Tradewind Recruitment

Are you a passionate Science Teacher looking to make a genuine difference in the lives of young people? Tradewind Recruitment is working in partnership with a number of well-established Alternative Provision schools across Northamptonshire and the surrounding areas, offering rewarding long-term opportunities for dedicated educators.

These schools support secondary-aged students who require a more personalised approach to education. Pupils may have a range of additional needs including Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH) needs, Autism (ASC), ADHD, anxiety, trauma, or behavioural challenges. Class sizes are significantly smaller than in mainstream settings, allowing teachers to build strong relationships with students and provide tailored support that helps them succeed.
