The Outdoors Group School is an independent special school that is based outside in a woodland setting for learners with SEMH and/or ASD needs. We believe in developing the whole learner not just their academic ability. We use a project-based method allowing the learner to be completely autonomous contributing to a well-rounded education, based on skills for lifelong learning and personal development.
The school caters for KS2 and KS3 learners (ages 7-14) and aims to provide a space for learners to develop skillsets and a growth mindset that they have been unable to in previous settings. We work closely with learners’ support networks, both professional and familial and try to create a holistic and engaging place for learners to grow.
We are now looking for a new member of staff to join our existing team to complement the skills already offered by these staff. It is an essential aspect of the role that you have a love for the outdoors as the position is based 100% outdoors. In addition to having experience of working 1:1 with learners and an understanding of ASD and PDA profiles, you must also hold a L3, or above, British Sign Language qualification.
This is an exciting and diverse role working with some of the hardest to reach learners to help build and develop community engagement.
An enhanced DBS check is required for this role.
