The setting varies by vacancy. Check whether the post is in a specialist school, a resource provision or a mainstream setting, and ask about the class and responsibilities before applying.
Requirements depend on the vacancy and your background. Review the advert and discuss your qualifications, teaching experience, right-to-work position and the checks needed with our team before a placement is confirmed.
