Imagine rediscovering the reason you became a teacher – where compassion leads, and every child’s potential can shine!
Red Balloon Reading is an inviting and nurturing educational setting, providing full-time or part-time therapeutic and educational support for up to 24 young people who are aged 11–16. We are currently seeking an English Teacher to design and implement individualised learning programmes for our students.
As our English Teacher, you will manage and develop the teaching of English, ensuring the provision of an appropriately broad, balanced, relevant and differentiated curriculum. You will professionally immerse yourself into our ethos and culture, modelling our approach, building relationships rooted in mutual respect. With small classes of no more than 4 students, and the directive to place wellbeing at the centre of all you do, this is an exciting opportunity for a passionate and forward-thinking individual who has the desire, skills and experience to do something incredible.
It’s time to reclaim the joy of teaching. Step away from the pressures of performance and rediscover the deep fulfilment that comes from nurturing young minds and hearts. Together, we can create spaces where wellbeing, connection, and curiosity come first.
