English Teacher - Alternative Provision | Chester | Temporary to Permanent | September Start Location: Chester, Cheshire About the Role This isn't just a teaching role. We are urgently seeking a dedicated and passionate English Teacher to join an Alternative Provision in Chester this September on a temporary to permanent basis. You will be working with young people who benefit from a different approach to learning students with high SEMH needs , many of whom have experienced challenges in mainstream education or require a more tailored setting to help them thrive.
