The Role

Term Time Only (39 Weeks per year)  

Garratt Park School is a secondary special school in Earlsfield for students aged 11-19. Students who attend the school have a wide range of Special Educational Needs (SEN). These are primarily Moderate Learning Difficulties (MLD) and speech, language and communication needs (SLCN). More than 40% have a diagnosis of Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD).

The school community is ethnically and culturally diverse and the school’s broad curriculum and high quality delivery leads to excellent outcomes across a range of areas, all staff are provided with training and there are career development opportunities available.

We have an opportunity for an additional experienced clinician to join a high profile multi-therapy team with clinical supervision provided.  You will have delivered a Therapy Service within an educational setting and be skilled at working effectively training others and being part of a multi-disciplinary team.  You should be a creative Therapist who is highly motivated, with excellent interpersonal and communication skills.  You should also be a confident and skilled practitioner, looking to extend your clinical skills in a classroom setting alongside other professionals committed to enhancing Language and Social Skills across the curriculum.

A commitment to the belief that all children can do and learn, whatever their disabilities, is an essential requirement for this post.  Experience and/or knowledge of working with children who have Special Educational Needs is essential.
