• Be able to have open dialogue and collaborate with your team
• Have a high level of verbal communication
• Love to reflect, learn and collaborate – learning is a journey.

The right applicant must find delight in reflection, work collaboratively, value real connection, share our values and have a hunger for learning.

In return we offer:

• A culture of kindness
• A brilliant supportive management team
• Lots of support into and through your learning journey, we love and support growth
• A centre whose mission is to empower and inspire everyone to learn together
• A passionate team of qualified teachers – we aim for 100% qualified.

We will continue to search until we find the right person, not just anyone will do. We are happy to chat about our role to see if it is right for you.
