- Take pride in themselves
- Develop self-confidence, an ability to communicate and acquire the skills necessary in life
- Be able to play a positive role in today's society
- Achieve their fullest potential
You will have the ability to work as part of a multi-disciplinary team, and to implement a range of holistic programmes as advised by key practitioners across the school. Due to the complex nature of pupils' needs, you must also be comfortable providing personal care.
Previous experience of working within a Special School is highly desirable; however we will also welcome applications from those with a background in:
- Youth/Community Work
- Speech and Language Therapy
- Sports Science
- Psychology and/or Counselling
