Are you looking for an exciting and unique new teaching opportunity?

Seamab is a children’s charity. Our school has been developed for children who have experienced trauma and loss, and our model is creative and dynamic. We have a maximum of eighteen pupils fifteen of whom live at Seamab, looked after by our skilled and experienced care team.

Our children learn best when they are engaged in a motivating and aspirational curriculum which is relevant for them. We provide individualised programmes of learning to meet each of the children’s needs and interests. More formal methods of learning and teaching are balanced with active learning, a strong focus on health and wellbeing, and a supportive and nurturing approach. We use Dyadic Developmental Practice to support our work with the children and all staff are trained in this attachment based model.

Teachers, support workers and children at Seamab have many opportunities to learn together. Learning experiences are often diverse and currently include yoga, forest schools, outdoor education, skiing, music and art.
