Our Burnley-based Alternative Provision is looking for resilient, empathetic, and driven individuals to support students who find mainstream education challenging. This isn't just a "classroom job"-it's an opportunity to provide a fresh start for students who need it most.

Academic Assistance: Supporting the delivery of a tailored curriculum alongside lead teachers.
Progress Tracking: Helping students hit their personal and educational milestones.
What We Are Looking For
Qualified Candidates: Level 2 or 3 TA qualification (or equivalent) is a plus.
Unqualified Candidates: We welcome applicants with backgrounds in sports coaching, youth work, care, or the military who possess the right "can-do" attitude.
Local Knowledge: A commitment to supporting the youth community in the Burnley area.
Resilience: The ability to stay calm under pressure and handle challenging behaviour with a smile.
Why Join Our Burnley Team?
Competitive Pay: Rates that reflect your experience and dedication.
Training & Development: Access to CPD, including Team Teach and Mental Health First Aid.
Impact: The chance to see the tangible difference you make in a young person's life every single day.
