The postholder will work collaboratively with both the school’s Senior Leadership Team (SLT) and the Clinical Locality Lead, plus other key stakeholders across OFG.
The role will be split between clinically leading the team and holding a therapy caseload. Working collaboratively with the team, the postholder will deliver bespoke assessment and intervention plans for our students who may present with complex profiles of need as a result of autism and other types of neurodivergence, developmental trauma and social, emotional and mental health (SEMH) needs.

This is an exciting and innovative time for the Clinical Team so please get in touch to find out more.
Working within overall framework of the service policies and procedures, the postholder will be supporting the integration of the specific service in the day to day running of each provision i.e., standardised assessments and clinical services. A key aspect of the role will be to deliver the wellbeing and clinical rainbow strategy at a universal, enhanced and specialist level to support our wider teams in meeting our pupils’ needs in line with set Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP).
Our Clinical Teams support the development of nurturing environments where our learners can flourish, always putting them at the forefront of everything they do. All our settings maintain a strong safeguarding culture, and our students are heard, respected and involved in decisions that affect them wherever possible. With this in mind, we are looking for a Lead Clinician who shares our vision; to build incredible futures by empowering vulnerable people in the UK to be happy and to make their way in the world.
