We are seeking to appoint exceptional people to join our expanding team at The Glen - our new residential provision at Glenwood Residential Special School.

Our school exists to make a transformational difference to the quality of life and future prospects of each individual young person through recognition and nurturing the unique contribution they make.

The Glen is an educational residential setting with space to support up to 20 Glenwood School learners who live with a range of complex needs including severe, profound and multiple learning difficulties, medical needs and autism.

The primary purpose of a residential placement at Glenwood School is to provide an early intervention that brings about change in the young person's life at home by helping them learn new ways of sharing; spaces, attention, resources and control alongside the acquisition of new skills, all of which can be generalised in different settings.

We strive to provide opportunities for learning that impact on their whole life so that they can enjoy and have positive experiences beyond school whilst exploring the challenges faced by them and their families.

We are looking for caring people who have experience of supporting young people with complex needs, who can work flexibly over a 24-hour period Monday - Friday and strive to make a positive difference in the lives of the young people we are so privileged to support. The role is varied and will include some personal care and light housekeeping tasks such as cooking, cleaning and laundry. As well as this, the aim is to provide the young people with support throughout their evenings and mornings helping them to become more independent and helping to break bad habits, working closely with their families to support this development. Our staff participate in ongoing training and development to allow them to offer the best possible care to our young people.

This is a position for 40-hours per week roles, working Monday-Friday, term time only, rotating Evenings and waking nights (early/late).

Successful applicants will be supported to complete a mandatory Level 3 Diploma in Residential Childcare where they do not already have such qualification.
This role includes membership of the Local Government Pension Scheme, which benefits from generous employer contributions.

NB: Please take note of the job description and person specification before applying. If you have any questions please contact the Head of Residential Care at the Glen, Kate Harvey - 01268 792575
