Outreach Teacher

Family Care is a small family-owned organisation providing specialist SEN education, fostering and residential care across the North West and West Midlands. We are committed to supporting vulnerable children and young people through nurturing, therapeutic services that have a lasting impact on their lives.

Eden School is a specialist independent school in Macclesfield where every child is valued as part of a close and supportive community. We provide individualised SEN education within a therapeutic learning environment for young people aged 6–16 with autism, ADHD, and/or social, emotional and mental health (SEMH) needs.

Alongside our school provision, we provide bespoke education for pupils who may be unable to access a traditional school environment. We are seeking an EOTAS Teacher with experience teaching across KS2–KS4 in either a mainstream or special school setting, who can provide flexible and individualised education based on each pupil’s learning and developmental needs.
