Speech and Language Therapist

3 weeks ago

London, Greater London, United Kingdom London Borough of Merton Full time

Are you a NQP looking for a great start to your career? Are you looking to consolidate, build on and develop your speech and language therapy skills with mainstream primary/secondary school pupils? Are you looking to be part of a talented, growing and supportive team? If so this is an excellent opportunity to work with a range of SLCN across a number of primary/secondary schools.

If you have insight into the range of speech and language difficulties pupils can experience in school, motivated and enjoy collaborative working then you are the person we are looking for.

Team Role:

Our small and friendly team works as part of the Local Authority in mainstream and special schools as well as in the Youth Offending Team and Virtual School for Children In Care Service in Merton (South West London). We deliver the statutory support children require and are developing our targeted and universal support to school across the Borough. We have excellent links with the Education and SEN teams and we enjoy multi-disciplinary working with other professionals such as specialist teachers, Educational Psychologists, Occupational Therapists etc.

Team CPD:

The service is professionally led by Speech Therapist Team Leaders and we have Clinical Leads in Autism, SEMH, SLD/PMLD/Complex Needs and DLD who will be able to provide relevant clinical support to any successful candidate. We also offer regular individual and peer group supervision to all therapists in order to develop their clinical skills and support their well-being. Membership of a relevant Clinical Excellence Network (CEN) is actively encouraged.

We have strong links with City and UCL Universities and offer clinical placements to BSC and MSC speech and language students. We are committed to evidence-based practice and provide internal and/or fund external training in all relevant interventions and approaches.

Working arrangements:

The main team base is at the Chaucer Centre in Morden, but the IT we provide allows therapists to work flexibly at schools or at home (where appropriate) in order to complete administrative tasks. Good transport links in the borough (Northern and District line tube, rail, bus and tram services) allow therapists to travel relatively easily to work and between schools.

Mileage or public transport costs between schools is covered, as are any training (in line with CPD) and professional fees incurred (HCPC and RCSLT). Foreign Applicants from overseas can apply to be sponsored by the Local Authority.
