Full-time, permanent, term time only (+1), 40 weeks

ALP Schools are a growing chain of small independent schools catering for young people with special educational needs. Parkview Academy is Ofsted registered for 40 learners, and as such, class sizes are small, ranging from one-to-one teaching to classes of up to six learners. The school's vision is to empower success through holistic and individualised learning. To achieve this, we work with learners from primary to post-16 and ensure that their needs are met and that each individual is provided with a wide range of learning opportunities.

We care for the wellbeing of our learners and our staff team. As such, all employees are provided with a BUPA Cash Plan scheme, annual wellbeing initiatives and termly perks. We also provide annual appraisals for all staff and actively encourage a range of CPD to help progress and create career opportunities.

We are excited to have vacancies for people to join our team. Currently, we are looking for an ICT Teacher and Technician.
