Come and join our passionate team at Wider Ambition, where staff at our beautiful, well-resourced specialist settings make a life-changing difference for students.

Our students are unlikely to display challenging behaviour but are unable to access mainstream school due to autism, anxiety or sensory needs. Students will be academically able but may have gaps in their knowledge. Our approach is highly personalised to meet each student’s needs. Group sizes range from 1:1 up to classes of 6, with a minimum staffing ratio of 1:3.

We are looking for a Maths specialist who is willing to work across our three Worcestershire sites - Lokrum Fields, Chestnut Place and Sunbrae - with a primary focus of delivering KS3 - KS5, with ability to support students with Maths-related anxiety to access the curriculum and to support students who are gifted in Maths to achieve top grades at A Level.

We require applications via a form which can be found at the following address: https://widerambition.org/vacancies/
