Job overview
We are looking for two Speech and Language Therapists to join our dynamic team for an immediate start or in September 2023. We offer excellent training and support working in a unique, friendly and professional environment.
A suitable candidate would be an enthusiastic and adaptable therapist, who enjoys working as part of a team. The post will involve managing and delivering therapy to a varied caseload of boys aged 8 to 18, including assessing pupils’ needs for Speech and Language Therapy, both formally and informally, and working collaboratively with teaching staff. Applications from Newly Qualified Practitioners, Practitioners Returning to Practice and professionals with experience would be welcomed. Therapy staff meet regularly for CPD and supervision, and support is provided both formally and informally. You must be a qualified Speech and Language Therapist and be registered with HCPC and RCSLT. Practitioners looking to return to practice must be prepared to complete the Return to Practice requirements and be able to return to the HCPC register. Full support to achieve this will be offered. Please contact us if you would like to discuss the post further.

The department has a growing national reputation and is committed to professional development. Training is provided within school during our comprehensive in-service training programme and regularly throughout the term. Attendance at relevant external training courses or central excellence networks (CENs) is encouraged.

About More House School
Outstanding day and boarding school for boy's aged 8-18 who struggle to thrive in a mainstream setting due to speech, language or communication issues.
Considered a national center of excellence, and the largest school of its kind in the UK.
Our aim is to help each boy who joins us, achieve, in the widest possible sense, more than he, or his parents, ever expected. This is accomplished by knowing a great deal about each student – his strengths as well as his difficulties. For his strengths, he must first be helped to identify them and, eventually, change them into a marketable form. His difficulties will not be static. We are mindful that we must be alert to changes caused by a student's own development, those of society and by the curriculum and make sure that each of our students is equipped to meet them.
