About you*
Are you passionate about learning? Do you strive for the best in everything you do, and think you could make a positive difference to lives of autistic and/or neurodivergent individuals? If this sounds like you, and you’re seeking a rewarding job role, we are currently recruiting for a Teacher to join our Education staff team.
Working independently and as part of a team, you will support children and young people to access highly personalised programmes of study, with the aim of helping them to achieve their individual aspirations. You will need to be enthusiastic, able to use your own initiative, have a drive and resilience for what is often a demanding role; and you must be people-centred with good communication and interpersonal skills, enabling you to build positive relationships with both staff and pupils.
While you must be qualified and have teaching experience, it is not essential for candidates to have previously worked with autistic individuals. Aycliffe School wish to recruit two experienced class teachers to continue to further the development of teaching and learning at the school and to provide additional expertise- maths specialism would be an advantage.

About us*
For more than 40 years we’ve led the way in providing autism-specific care and education for children, young people, and adults across the North-East of England.
Recognised for our innovation and excellence, everything we do stems from an unswerving belief in providing bespoke, person-centred support. It’s at the heart of who we are to recognise and celebrate the uniqueness of every human being, and to understand that no two people, within an understanding of neurodiversity, will have the same needs or wants.
Through the work of our Autism and Neurodiversity Think Tank we remain committed to listening to and being informed by the very people we exist to serve.
This passion for innovation, personalisation and a commitment to empowering those who work for us and for those we work alongside, has allowed us to add to and adapt our services year on year, keeping us right at the fore of autism-specific service provision in the UK.
Please refer to the job description and person specification attached for more information.
