The Opportunity: Find Your Fit in Lancashire

Choose Your Pathway

The Academy Path (Mainstream): Join one of our high-performing Secondary Schools. Perfect for ECTs who want to focus on subject mastery, KS3-KS4 progression, and thriving department cultures.

Dedicated 1:1 Mentoring: Access to a lead practitioner in your specific subject or SEN speciality.

Work-Life Balance: Centralised behaviour systems and "Live Marking" policies designed to keep you out of the office and in the classroom.

Relocation Support: Moving to Lancashire? Ask us about our "New Starter" support for those relocating to our beautiful county.

Who You Are

Resilient & Ambitious: You are nearing completion of your QTS and are ready to hit the ground running.

Subject Passionate: You have a deep love for your subject and the ability to make it relevant to 21st-century learners.

Adaptable: You understand that every student in Lancashire has a different story, and you are ready to listen to theirs.
