Summary

Science Teacher – SEMH Provision (Rochdale)
Pay: £150 – £210 per day (depending on experience)
Start: ASAP
Contract: Full-time, long-term opportunity available

I’m currently working with a school in Rochdale that supports students with SEMH needs, and they’re looking for a Science Teacher to join their team on a full-time basis.

This is a great opportunity for a Science Teacher who enjoys building strong relationships, creating structure in the classroom, and helping students re-engage with learning. The school has a supportive team in place and a strong focus on consistency, routine and wellbeing.

As a Science Teacher, you’ll be responsible for delivering engaging lessons and helping students build confidence and make progress, both academically and personally.

The role will include:

  • Teaching Science across KS3 and KS4 (depending on experience and specialism)


  • Delivering structured lessons with clear routines and expectations


  • Supporting students with SEMH needs, where behaviour and wellbeing can be a key part of the day


  • Working closely with pastoral and SEN teams to keep learning positive and consistent


  • Helping students develop confidence, resilience and a more positive relationship with education


    To be a good fit, you will need:

    • QTS or QTLS


    • Experience supporting SEMH, behaviour needs or similar in a UK school setting


    • A calm, resilient approach and strong classroom management


    • A DBS on the update service (or willing to apply for one)


      If you’re a Science Teacher looking for a role where you can genuinely make a difference, I’d love to have a chat and tell you more about the school.

      All applicants will be contacted to discuss suitability and then invited to register with TeacherActive.



      Registration involves an enhanced DBS check, ID checks and will require you to supply good professional references. We pride ourselves on excellent service. We can provide a wide range of opportunities in schools and other educational institutions, with good rates of pay, at times to suit your needs.



      Regular external audits have shown repeatedly that our standards are exceptional. We are passionate about finding the right staff for each environment.

      TeacherActive is an equal opportunities employer, and operates as an Employment Business in providing temporary or contract job-seeking services.
