SEN Primary Teacher

How would you like to be paid for five days but only work four* as a Primary School SEN Tutor? Even better, our partner's are looking for the right candidate to start immediately.

Wellbeing is at the heart of everything our partner school does, so they're always looking for new ways to improve staff work/life balance. They're taking part in a trial of the 4-Day Working Week, meaning that you could be working one day less a week (or equivalent). 4DWW will be rolled out within their school, when they have a full complement of staff, and within the next year - so there's never been a more exciting time to join
