Teacher Cycle 2 or 3

About the job

School with impact. Small class. Genuine relationship work.

They bring different learning and developmental prerequisites, including in the areas of ADHD, autism, emotional regulation and special educational needs. We are looking for a teacher who sees not only challenges in this, but above all educational meaningfulness, professional depth and the opportunity to be effective.
