TEACHER (Specialist Support Base) Main / Upper Pay Ranges (£32,916 to £51,048 pro rata Permanent, Full Time Small enough to care, big enough to make a positive impact Seaton Valley High School and Whytrig Middle School are thriving schools in South East Northumberland and alongside Seaton Sluice Middle School, form the Seaton Valley Federation of Schools. As close-knit, smaller schools, we pride ourselves on a community where staff truly know every student both academically and pastorally. Driven by our core values—be ready, be respectful, be safe—our students demonstrate excellent behaviour and a genuine desire to learn and achieve their best.

We are launching a brand new Specialist Support Base (SSB) operating across Whytrig Middle School and Seaton Valley High School in September 2026, and are looking for a talented enthusiastic teacher to help shape it.
