St Peter’s Preparatory School, Lympstone, is one of the most successful and forward-looking independent preparatory schools in the South West, awarded a ‘significant strength’ in our most recent ISI Inspection (May 2024), and we pride ourselves on our learning support.  

The School wishes to engage a suitably qualified SpLD Specialist Peripatetic Teacher to work on an individual basis with pupils who have Specific Learning Difficulties associated with Dyslexia.  Specialist lessons are parent-funded at a pre-agreed rate of £21.50 for 30 minutes.

This is a wonderful opportunity to work alongside our talented teaching team to enable children with Specific Learning Difficulties to thrive within the friendly and caring ethos on which we pride ourselves.
