Teacher

---

We are looking to recruit a part-time teacher for 3 days a week. The actual three days will be agreed with the successful candidate once the recruitment process has been completed. As the provision teacher, you will be working with groups of up to 6 students per day, from Key Stages 2 to 4. The main purpose of this role is to re-engage students in their learning and building their self-confidence through the teaching of computer skills. A typical lesson (learning activity) will last for about 45 minutes. 

Working Hours: 9 am to 3 pm, 3 days per week.

Pay range:£26,790 to £32,430 per year. 

*We as an independent provision can’t contribute to the Teacher’s Pension Scheme, but we provide staff with a suitable pension. 

 This role will be based at our new Bury St. Edmunds base, located in a beautiful setting at Fornham Park, just off the A134. This new provision will start taking pupils from the start of September. Within the provision there is a work area for the students, a small kitchen area and side office. There is also a small grassed outdoor area.

There is plenty of parking for staff and there are also some EV charging stations around Fornham Park, including one at the closest car park to our provision. 

 Reboot Education was founded by Paul Arch and Viv Hunt. Both Paul and Viv were experienced senior school leaders before setting up Reboot Education. Paul and Viv opened their first alternative education provision in central Ipswich at the start of 2024. Since opening the provision, demand for our service has increased greatly over the last year which has resulted in Reboot Education opening a second provision in Bury St. Edmunds. The Bury St. Edmunds base will start working with students from September 2025. 

Our provisions are purposefully small and are set-up not to feel like a conventional school. We support up to 6 students per day. The students who attend our provision attend from 1 to 3 days per week and are usually struggling to maintain their mainstream school place. We use a computing and technology-based curriculum to re-engage the students in learning and to help them rediscover their self-esteem and confidence. This is a real opportunity to make a difference to the lives of students who are often most in need of people to believe in them. Each provision is staffed with at least 1 teacher and 2 members of support staff daily. 

Our provision days start at 9.30 am and finish at 2.30 pm. We normally give the students the first 30 minutes of the day to come in and have breakfast and complete a settling task. At 10 am we start the first learning activity of the day, with a break at around 11 am. Following the morning break there is another learning activity and then at 12pm we stop for a lunch break. Between 1pm and 1.45pm the students complete a final learning activity and then if they have worked hard, they have some reward time.
