multifunctional teacher

It seems like the context already explains the term. I suggest "multifunctional teacher", which has a myriad of possibilities, for example:

"The organization of research activity (training a ** multifunctional teacher ** for the contemporary school assumes the inclusion in the educational program of different areas and types and the implementation of individual plans from which the student can choose)."- http://www.analefefs.ro/anale-fefs/2013/s1/pe-autori/64.pdf

"The ** multifunctional teacher ** serves students with all types of disabilities – visual, hearing, mental, physical etc." - https://www.academia.edu/34425137/Integrated_and_Inclusive_E...

"The deisre for a ** multifunctional teacher ** supply and demand study (one that identifies shortage areas and also aids in planning, policy development, and evaluation)..." - https://files.eric.ed.gov/fulltext/ED506631.pdf

Peer comment(s):

disagree Richard Purdom : multifunctional means able to fulfill different functions, not teach different subjects/years, when is this teacher not a teacher? 'assumes the inclusion in the educational program of different areas.' wasn't written by a native, for sure.
