Support Workers required for independent residential college in Cranborne.
This college caters for students between the ages of 16-25 with Social, Emotional and Mental Health Needs (SEMH). Some students are also on the Autistic Spectrum. They are looking for some enthusiastic candidates to support on the residential side of the college.
Their residential accommodation is both homely and welcoming because they recognise that being away from home, especially for the first time, can be stressful for both the students and their families.
Each accommodation area comprises of 7 or 8 individual bedrooms, some of which are en-suite, with communal areas for socialising. Shared laundry and cooking facilities are available. Residents are welcome to personalise their individual rooms with items from home to help them settle in.

The accommodation is also utilised in the teaching and development of vital independent living skills including:
- Planning and budgeting for daily tasks including shopping and making GP appointments
- Cooking
- Cleaning and laundry
- Independent travel
- Accessing community amenities safely
Day staff work 8:00 - 20:00 and the night team (Waking Night) work 20:00 - 8:00. We are able to consider candidates with full time and part time availability.
