SEN / SEND Teacher - Manchester

You can be the teacher who plans around the learner, not a scheme of work - the teacher a vulnerable young person actually needs. None of the teaching-at-scale trade-off, less admin, just one person and the part of teaching you care about. We're recruiting experienced SEND teachers acrossManchester, £28 - £35 per hour, for one-to-one work with children and young people who haven't been served by mainstream provision.
