Shrewsbury, United Kingdom Family Care Group Full time

Join our team at Access School in Shropshire and be part of making a difference to a young person’s life

Access School is not your run of the mill school. We find creative ways to work with very special children, who, for a variety of reasons, struggle with mainstream schools.

Small student numbers mean we can give our very best to the young people who come through our doors every day, and we'd love you to be there too. The role is varied with no to days being the same. So, if you are resilient, fun loving and have experience of working with young people who may display challenging behaviours we want to hear from you.

It will be your role to compliment teachers’ delivery of the national curriculum and contribute to the development of other support staff, students and school policies and strategies. To work with teaching staff to facilitate outdoor educational activities, physical education and educational visits. To enhance educational experiences for pupils through the effective planning and assessment of enrichment activities alongside the teaching staff.
