Pinewood School is seeking a highly effective intervention teacher to plan and deliver a range of bespoke interventions, alongside supporting classroom staff with appropriate strategies to reduce barriers to learning. A strength in phonics would be desirable, but not essential.

Our students face a range of learning difficulties, autism, and speech, language, and communication needs. Your expertise will help them develop the confidence and independence they need to thrive in the community.
