 Selworthy School is a special school for learners age from 4 – 19 with Complex/Severe Learning Difficulties.

Applications are welcome from both newly qualified and experienced teachers with a flexible approach, a creative flair and a passion for ensuring the best outcomes for all. Applicants should be confident, resilient and have excellent communication skills.
