Case leads\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>

Our case leads oversee the bespoke packages of provision for our young people.\u00a0They make sure each student has appropriate targets, manage the direct teaching team and work closely with parents\/carers and other professionals involved in a young person\u2019s education and care.\u00a0<\/p>

Specialist teachers<\/strong><\/h3>

Specialist teachers plan for, and deliver, creative packages to our young people, which cover social, emotional and academic elements.\u00a0They go into the homes and work 1:1 with young people as well as taking learning out into the community when the young person feels ready. It\u2019s really rewarding teaching, where you are making a real difference.\u00a0<\/p>

Education mentors<\/strong><\/h3>

Education mentors support our young people with life skills and community engagement through creative approaches.\u00a0They also deliver (but do not plan for) creative academic learning.\u00a0Similarly to our specialist teachers, our education mentors work in the home and out in the community, supporting young people where they feel safe and secure.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
