Protocol Education are working in partnership with an independent specialist provision in Great Dunmow to recruit a dedicated Teacher (QTS required) to support students aged 11–19.
The school provides positive, high-quality and relevant educational experiences for young people with ongoing social, emotional and mental health (SEMH) difficulties, alongside associated complex needs.
