- A genuine passion for both Law and Psychology and the ability to inspire young people.
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
- Strong organisational and classroom management abilities.
- A commitment to continuous professional development.
- The ambition to achieve Qualified Teacher Status through a salaried route.
Whether you are currently working as an unqualified teacher, tutor, instructor, cover supervisor, or experienced teaching assistant with substantial teaching responsibilities, this graduate trainee teacher opportunity offers an excellent route into the profession.
