The Role

Halls Head College is seeking to appoint a dedicated, innovative and hardworking Student Support Teacher to work collaboratively within our Student Services Team. The position would be ideal for aspirant teachers with a background in Student Services who want to develop their skills and knowledge in this area with a view to gaining future leadership positions in a secondary school or within the Department of Education more broadly.
