At Pivot we believe children deserve better. In our academies we teach and support children and young people from Key Stages 2 – 5 who have been excluded from school, for whom mainstream education is simply not working, or those with an EHCP who require a specialist placement. Every day our teams do incredible work, making a huge difference to some complex and challenging children, many of whom come to us with traumatic backgrounds.
Our LINKS programme at Pivot Academy Leeds provides education for learners with Emotional School Based Avoidance (EBSA). We ensure learners who struggle to attend school because of anxieties or emotional difficulties associated with their special educational needs and disabilities, receive an education, as is every child’s right. We support these learners with both on and offsite experiences to support them in accessing education, to engage with academic and pastoral activities and to achieve qualifications.
Our aim within LINKS is to provide:
Learning
Inclusion
Nurture
Knowledge
Social Mobility
We have an exciting opportunity for a dedicated and resilient practitioner to join our LINKS team in Leeds. As a teacher, you will promote and engage with learners across a range of subjects, delivering quality education to learners in a designated space designed to meet their needs. Our class sizes in LINKS are very small with high adult to pupil ratios.
Working at Pivot will give you a real chance to change our learner’s lives and we truly believe you will find working here a rewarding experience. Applications from unqualified teachers are welcome.
