You might be feeling frustrated - we understand. So many of our teachers in AP tell us how much they value their class size of six; the environment to form close relationships with their students; and the opportunity to design a meaningful and creative curriculum for their subject area.

Have you built knowledge and experience in particular in the subject areas of maths; computing; science; DT; art, humanities or PE?

At the Wymering School our vision is to build a creative community which learns together to become knowledgeable, self aware, independent and happy people who make a positive difference, wherever life takes them. Are you an enthusiastic individual who can bring this to life and make a real difference to children’s lives?

Sally our new Headteacher is already on board and has recruited our staffing team for April when the school opens. Sally's now looking to grow her amazing team further, to work alongside her to build this community school as student numbers grow. The Wymering School is currently a building site – we think this will be the most challenging and exciting opportunity in your career so far. A brand new school, truly in the heart of its community; the choices you make with the pupils and the creativity you bring to the classroom will give the children the opportunities they deserve.

You will be part of an inclusive and collaborative team that, no matter what the challenge may be, are ready to face it head on and are committed to seeing it through.

Learning can look different for everyone; learning is continuous and enabled by the broad curriculum, therapeutic interventions, and the environment the school and staffing team create. It’s only through your awesome teaching that we will create that environment together to ensure the pupils progress towards a happy life that they can enjoy.

The Wymering School is a Special Free School, an important part of the local community, which will cater for 66 children between 9 and 16 years of age who have an Education and Health Care Plan.

So why should you choose The Wymering School? Our pupils have a social communication and interaction difficulties, associated Speech, Language and Communication Difficulties (a neurodiverse profile) and high levels of anxiety and / or associated challenging and distressed behaviour and this is why they deserve you.
