Due to unprecedented demand for our services, Hawthorn Education is looking to recruit a number of teachers to teach in the North West of the United Kingdom.

A bit about us…
Hawthorn Education is a private teaching organisation that works with young people who are not able to uptake their full-time educational offering. We are commissioned by local authorities and schools to work with young people throughout the North West. We work as far north as Barrow, all the way down to Skelmersdale, and from Blackpool all the way out to Accrington.

We work 1:1 with all our students, and put their needs first; we prioritise building positive, professional relationships with all our students. The learning will happen when they feel happy, secure and settled in themselves. This is an important process that has allowed us to help hundreds of students, changing their mindsets and improving their life chances for the future.

All our teachers are fully-qualified, experienced professionals, with a wealth of knowledge and skills to enable them to help young people re-engage in learning and begin to genuinely enjoy education once more. We teach maths, English, sciences, religious studies, geography, history, Spanish & French, art, biology, chemistry, physics, and PSHE, from Early Years all the way up to A Level standard. In addition to this, we run regular forest school sessions in the superb Lancashire countryside, and can offer Assisted Equine Therapy at our stables.

We are also a registered exam centre - this allows us to teach, administer and award Entry Level and Functional Skills qualifications.

All our teachers are self employed, which helps maintain a work-life balance and we currently pay £32/hour plus travel expenses.

If you’re interested in working with us, you must be:
- UK, North West-based,
- Willing and able to undertake in-person teaching,
- A fully qualified teacher having completed you NQT/ECT induction period,
- Legally permitted to work in the UK.

If you are interested and can answer “Yes” to all of these questions, we’d love to hear from you.
Let’s start with you completing our application form: https://forms.gle/4A8E41Y1rYAcUwFC7

Hawthorn Education Services Ltd is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people, and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. All applicants must be willing to undergo appropriate child protection screening, including checks with past employers and the Disclosure and Barring Service.

A nice problem to have...
The high quality of the teaching that we offer has led to an explosion in demand for our services. We are looking to recruit a significant number of teachers throughout Lancashire and the South Lakes area. We appreciate that you may have many questions so please do get in touch.
If this isn't for you, please share this post as it may save a teacher from leaving the profession.
