Job Description
Looking for a meaningful career where no two days are the same? Welcome to No Limits at MacIntyre.
At MacIntyre, we don’t just offer jobs — we offer opportunities to change lives. If you've ever imagined working in education but outside the confines of a traditional classroom, this could be your perfect next step.
No Limits is our innovative education programme for young people aged 16+ with learning disabilities and/or autism. Together, we explore real-world learning — in the community, in work placements, and through personalised support that adapts to each young person’s interests and needs.
This role is term-time only (39 weeks per year), working 3 days per week.
In this role, you’ll support young people on their journey to independence. You’ll help them build confidence, develop essential life skills, and discover their own unique path into adulthood.
You might be supporting someone like Harriet*:
Harriet found the classroom overwhelming. With social anxiety and a speech impediment, she often felt unheard and unsupported. When Harriet joined No Limits, we worked closely with her to understand her communication style, introduce assistive technology, and empower her to make choices in her day-to-day life. Now, she’s confidently ordering her own food in cafés and is thriving at college with support from the MacIntyre team.
What we’re looking for:
We’re not looking for formal teaching experience — we’ll provide full training. What really matters is who you are:
Are you warm, energetic and curious about people?
Can you see potential where others see challenge?
Do you believe in listening first, then acting with empathy and creativity?
If yes, you’re already speaking our language.
You’ll need a full UK manual driving licence, as travel is an essential part of the role.
Why join us?
A role with
real variety— every day brings something newThe chance to work 1:1 or in small groups with young people in their own communities
Ongoing training and development in a
supportive, values-led organisationThe opportunity to be part of a team that puts
relationships and respectat the heart of everything we do
This is more than a job. It’s a chance to be someone who makes a difference, helping young people grow in confidence, build independence, and feel proud of who they are.
If you're ready to start a career where you matter as much as the people you support, we’d love to hear from you.
MacIntyre – Empowering people to live a life that makes sense to them.

About you
Experience is not essential. For us, underlying ability and attitude are just as important as background and experience.
If you have not worked in the field of education before then please don’t be put off. We can provide all of the specialist training you need, but we can't train you to have initiative, to be friendly and patient, and those are essential qualities for this work.
You must be a driver with a UK Manual Driving Licence and have your own transport, willing and able to travel across the area, supporting young people from their own homes. Reasonable mileage is reimbursed.
GCSEs (or equivalent) minimum C grade in English and Mathematics are essential.
Some more things you need to know:
- Most of your work will be during term-time but there is up to three weeks' training and development commitment during academic holidays
- Some young people require assistance with personal care or medication
About us
MacIntyre is a national charity which supports over 1,200 people with a learning disability and/or autism.
We were founded in 1966 by the visionary parent of a child with disabilities and have been growing steadily ever since. We celebrate and develop everyone’s unique gifts, talents and contributions.

Job Description
Looking for a Role that Fits Your Lifestyle? A Term-Time Education Role Might Be Perfect for You!
Are you looking for a fulfilling job that allows you to make a real difference in the lives of others? Join our team in Great Holm, Milton Keynes, where we’re expanding to support a growing number of students. No experience in education? Don't worry – we believe in your potential, and we’ll provide the training you need to succeed!
- Full-time (38 hours)
- 37 weeks per year contract
- Comprehensive training and ongoing professional development
- A chance to be part of a supportive and inclusive team that makes a real difference
As a Community Teaching Facilitator, you won’t be confined to the classroom. You’ll work with young people whose learning difficulties or autism make mainstream education less suitable for their needs. With a focus on individualised learning, you’ll teach essential life skills and provide lessons in literacy, numeracy, and ICT, all tailored to each student's unique needs.
One of the many rewarding stories we share is that of Amanda*. When Amanda started with us, she was being supported 2:1 at her previous school and had been excluded from group lessons. By creating a personalised communication system, we helped Amanda take control of her learning experience. This gave her confidence, reduced challenging behaviours, and allowed her to engage in group activities, eventually forming friendships with her peers. This is just one example of the impact you can have when you work with us.
At the heart of everything we do are our core values, and they shape the way we approach education and support. Our DNA includes:
- Ambition for ourselves and for each other– We’re committed to growing and developing as a team, always striving to be better for those we help.
- Everyone has a voice and is listened to– Whether you’re a student, a parent, or a team member, your voice matters.
- We keep on learning– In this role, you’ll be constantly learning and evolving to meet the needs of those we support.
- We want equality– We are committed to providing equal opportunities and support for every person we work with.
- Everyone feels safe and in control– We prioritise creating a safe, supportive environment where all can thrive.
- We value friends, family, and neighbourhoods– Strong communities are key to success, and we foster those connections every day.
