Our Client is seeking a compassionate and dedicated Temporary Designated Teacher to support looked-after and previously looked-after learners, helping to promote educational achievement, wellbeing, safeguarding, and inclusion.

This is a rewarding opportunity to play a vital role in supporting vulnerable learners by coordinating support, monitoring progress, and working collaboratively with education professionals, carers, social workers, and support teams to ensure positive outcomes are achieved.

* Monitor attendance, engagement, progress, wellbeing, and support interventions.

* Maintain accurate, confidential records and documentation.

* Work closely with curriculum teams, pastoral staff, carers, social workers, and external agencies.

* Help remove barriers to learning and promote positive educational outcomes.

* Escalate safeguarding, welfare, attendance, or progress concerns when appropriate.

* Promote trauma-informed, attachment-aware, and inclusive approaches across the organisation.

* Support staff by sharing guidance and best practice for working with looked-after learners.

About You

* Experience supporting children, young people, or vulnerable learners within education, safeguarding, pastoral care, or a related setting.

* Understanding of the educational and wellbeing needs of looked-after and previously looked-after learners.

* Knowledge of safeguarding responsibilities and appropriate information sharing.

* Strong organisational, communication, and record-keeping skills.

* Ability to work collaboratively with a range of internal and external professionals.

* A learner-centred, inclusive, and non-judgemental approach.

* Commitment to safeguarding, equality, diversity, and inclusion.

This is an excellent opportunity to make a meaningful difference to learners' lives while working within a supportive educational environment.
