Job Description

Reignite Curiosity. Rebuild Confidence. Rewrite Futures.



At Wilderness Way, we're not your average education provider--and this is not your average teaching role.



We're on the lookout for a bold, creative and compassionate Education Assessment Lead to work 1:1 with up to 8 children across our unique homes. You won't just be delivering lessons - you'll be crafting personalised education journeys that meet every child where they are and help them discover just how far they can go.

Your mission:

Plan exciting activities and visits that make learning stick



Collaborate with our care and outdoor teams to bring lessons to life

This role is ideal if you're a Qualified Teacher who:

Believes that education is about more than exams



Can connect with young people who've faced challenges



Loves to think outside the box (and outside the classroom!)



Has a calm, positive, and professional vibe - even when the day gets wild



You'll work closely with our Education Manager and the wider team around each child to design and deliver a meaningful education offer, whether that's for a 17-week placement or something longer-term.



What's in it for you?



24/7 employee assistance and counselling programme



Fully funded CPD + recognised qualifications



"Above and Beyond" recognition scheme



Medical benefit scheme + staff discounts



Amazing peer and team support



A chance to change lives, every single day



Must have a full UK manual driving licence and your own car - Travel between services is a key part of this role.
