This is an exciting opportunity for a primary teacher to join our team. You will deliver across the curriculum to a class of no more than 8 students. The role will be based at Rutherford House in Quedgeley, Gloucester.
You will be a key member of the wider primary team and will have plenty of opportunities to work with teachers and support staff to deliver an exciting curriculum that supports students’ social and emotional development as much as their academic progress.

The Altus School is a local authority maintained alternative provision school, working with students from Year 1 through to Y11 who predominantly join us after a permanent exclusion from a mainstream setting.

You can hear directly from our staff about what it is like to work at the school by looking at our website. You will be joining a challenging but ultimately hugely rewarding environment. Every day is different, you will develop strong working relationships both with students and your colleagues. Together, we make a real difference for our young people and families.
We are a growing school with 7 centres, plus our new primary satellite classroom in a mainstream school, across Gloucestershire. There are a wide range of opportunities to work collaboratively with colleagues across the school to plan and share best practice. In addition, you will benefit from a generous employee assistance scheme which includes health care, online sports and fitness and wellbeing support.
We encourage visitors to the school to come and see us in action. Please visit our website for more information.
