- Patient, empathetic and understanding towards individual student needs
This is a unique opportunity to join a school that values innovation, celebrities success, and places pupil wellbeing at the heart of everything it does. If you are ready to inspire, support and transform young lives, we would love to hear from you.
Safeguarding children is an integral part of what we do and we have a stringent safer recruitment process. We undertake checks on all the candidates we work with. As such we require a current Enhanced DBS Disclosure for everyone working in Schools.

If you take a temporary role with Sense Education you will be paid on a weekly basis. All pay rates quoted will be inclusive of 12.07% statutory holiday pay. This advert is for a temporary position but long term. In some cases, the option to make this role permanent may become available.
