Alternative Education Teacher - Literacy and Numeracy

The educator/teacher will work alongside the tumuaki to tailor and deliver individualized education programs to up to 20 young people. They will work alongside youth workers to help develop and implement this programme.

The programme will operate from a strength-based approach that integrates ‘hands on’ learning with youth development and trauma-informed practices. Our goal is to provide a safe place, which features stable relationships with positive adults, peers and whānau, as a foundation for re-engaging students in learning.

The teacher will be supported by youth workers/experienced mentors will be part of a wider integrated team at BGI and other youth organisations which offers wrap around supports through the integration of health, wellbeing, social, and educational services and programmes.
