The Vision: Science for Everyone
Do you love Science but feel stifled by massive classes and rigid one:size:fits:all teaching? We are looking for an energetic, patient, and curious Science Teacher to join our brand:new secondary school.
This isnt a traditional school. Our students (ages 11:16) have unique ways of seeing the world:they navigate life with Autism, sensory processing needs, and social communication challenges. We dont just teach them Science; we help them discover the world in a way that feels safe and exciting for them.
Why This is the Perfect Move for You
If you are early in your SEND career or a mainstream teacher looking to transition into a more rewarding, person:centered environment, this is your ground floor opportunity.

*
A Fresh Start: Since we open in September 2025, youll be a founding member. You get to help set up the new Science lab and create the culture from day one.
*
Mentorship: Youll be supported by The Aurora Groups extensive network, giving you the tools to become an expert in neurodivergent education.
What Youll Be Doing
*
Making Science Click: Translating the National Curriculum into hands:on, sensory:friendly experiments that engage students passions.
*
Creating a Safe Space: Using a non:confrontational, chill approach to help students regulate their emotions while they learn.
*
Collaborating: Working with parents and specialists to ensure every student has a bespoke plan for success.
*
Lending a Hand: Being part of a new school means things move fast:youll be someone who is happy to jump in and help out wherever needed.
Who Were Looking For
*
QTS or QTLS is a must (thats how you get the GBP5,000 bonus).
*
A genuine people person who is empathetic and resilient.
*
Someone who is fascinated by how the brain works and wants to specialise in Autism:led teaching.
*
A team player who is excited by the challenge of a new school launch.
