We’re Hiring: Lead Teacher – Curriculum & Quality
Shine Learning & Training Centre | Alternative Provision | Bedfordshire
Salary: £35,000 – £45,000 per annum, dependent on experience
Location: Bedford site
Interviews: Week beginning 13 July 2026
Shine Learning & Training Centre is looking for an exceptional Lead Teacher – Curriculum & Quality to join our growing alternative provision.
This is not a traditional teaching role. Please read this advert carefully, as the pressure, approach and teaching requirements are not the same as those in a mainstream setting.
We are looking for someone who understands that, in alternative provision, education is about far more than delivering lessons. It is about rebuilding trust, confidence, communication, resilience and belief in learning.
Our pupils may have experienced disrupted education, SEMH needs, anxiety, trauma, poor attendance, low confidence or other barriers to learning. They need adults who are calm, consistent, skilled, flexible and ambitious for them.
The successful candidate will play a key role in leading and developing our English, Functional Skills and wider curriculum offer, while also supporting teaching and learning across multiple subjects within the centre.
You will teach, lead, coach, model good practice and help shape a curriculum that is meaningful, inclusive and genuinely prepares young people for their next step. This is an ideal middle leadership role for a candidate who has a real thirst for developing teaching and learning.
We are also open to discovery calls this week for anyone who would like to find out more about the role ahead of a formal interview. This role is different, and we would welcome the opportunity to talk it through properly with interested candidates.
Formal interviews will take place week beginning 13 July 2026.
To apply, arrange a discovery call or find out more, please contact:
