SPECIAL CLASS TEACHER
X 3 Posts ( x 2 Permanent and x 1 Fixed Term Position )
Working in a Cork ETB Special School offers a profoundly rewarding and meaningful career. It presents an opportunity to make a tangible difference in the lives of students who often require additional support to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally. Each day brings new challenges and successes, and even small progress and milestones can feel like a huge accomplishment—not just for the students, but for the dedicated staff who support them.
This dynamic environment fosters a strong sense of purpose, as you are part of a dedicated, supportive team helping children reach their full potential, often in creative and individualised ways. You get to build close, trusting relationships with students and their families, becoming a key part of their developmental journey. No two days are ever the same, and staff are continuously learning and growing, both personally and professionally as they adapt to the evolving needs of their learnings and the school community.
• Deeply Rewarding Work.
• Specialised Skill Development.
• Strong Team Collaboration.
• Creative and Flexible Teaching
• Opportunities for permanent contracts
• Additional annual allowance (From €2,500) payable to eligible teachers working in Special Schools, recognising the specialised and rewarding nature of the role.
• Promotional opportunities
