Science Teacher - Alternative Provision

Science Teacher - Alternative Provision Leicestershire | Monday, Thursday & Friday | Immediate Start | Long-Term Opportunity with Potential to Become Permanent

Are you a resilient, passionate and dedicated teacher looking for a rewarding opportunity where you can genuinely make a difference?

Aspire People is working in partnership with an alternative provision setting attached to a secondary school, to recruit a committed Science Teacher for an immediate start.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who thrives on building relationships, engaging young people and supporting students who may have faced challenges within mainstream education.

You will be working with small classes of approximately eight students, delivering Science at a lower GCSE level. The setting supports young people who have experienced permanent exclusion from mainstream schools, so the successful candidate will need to be adaptable, confident and resilient, with the ability to build positive relationships and establish clear boundaries.

The Role

• Teaching Science at lower GCSE level.
• Working with small groups of approximately eight students.
• Teaching on Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays.
• Delivering engaging and accessible lessons tailored to individual student needs.
• Building trust and rapport with students who may present challenging behaviours.
• Managing difficult situations calmly and confidently, maintaining high expectations and professional boundaries.

We are looking for someone who:

• Is resilient, patient and confident when working with challenging behaviour.
• Has the ability to build strong relationships with young people.
• Is confident setting boundaries while showing empathy and understanding.
• Is passionate about helping students overcome barriers to learning.
• Has strong behaviour management skills and a positive, consistent approach.
• Has experience in mainstream education, alternative provision, PRUs or similar settings.

A Science specialism would be advantageous, but it is not essential. We are particularly interested in individuals with the right personality, resilience and ability to engage young people. The school values strong practitioners who can make a positive impact, even if their subject specialism is not exclusively Science.
