The role of Teacher at Prior’s Court

As a Teacher at Prior’s Court, you will deliver high-quality, personalised learning programmes that enable young people to grow, develop, and achieve meaningful progress. Working closely with the Learning Lead and a multi-disciplinary team, you will plan, deliver, and evidence learning across relevant Areas of Learning. You will also act as a tutor for a small group of young people, supporting their holistic development in partnership with their residential teams.

This is a role where creativity, compassion, and resilience come together — and where your work genuinely changes lives.

• Plan, deliver, and adapt learning in line with long-term planning, creating tailored short- and medium-term plans and evidencing progress for moderation.
• Work collaboratively with the Learning Lead, meeting regularly, maintaining accurate registers and records, and ensuring all learning outcomes are tracked.
• Support young people holistically by using structured teaching approaches, implementing This Is Me plans, leading a tutor group, maintaining stakeholder communication, and ensuring safeguarding and health needs are met.
• Facilitate meaningful experiences by providing lunch cover when needed and building relationships with workplace partners to create work experience opportunities.
• Maintain a safe, well-resourced environment through effective risk assessment, monthly monitoring, and ordering resources within budget.
• Lead and support colleagues by line-managing an Education Autism Practitioner, modelling best practice, mentoring others, supporting staff induction, and contributing to positive team morale while completing additional duties aligned with Prior’s Court’s values.
