Do you find it rewarding when you see a young adult succeed for the very first time, sometimes against the odds?
Are you ready to create opportunities that make a long lasting impression?
If so, we want to hear from you!
Our college is London's first registered specialist day college, supporting young people with autism aged 16-25. We are looking to recruit Learning and Behaviour Specialists as we continue to expand and internally promote.
You will provide support to our learners, helping them improve their skills and achieve their educational targets. Each learner is given a personalised curriculum, specifically tailored for them depending on their aspirations, needs and abilities.
No two days will be the same, on Monday you may take a learner swimming, the next day travel training on buses or developing reading skills. These activities we often take for granted are vital for our learners.
You will be a team player, working with a trans-disciplinary team who collaborate with each other to provide the best for our learners. These teams can include Occupational Therapists, Speech and Language Therapists, Behaviour Analysts, Lecturers and many more.
Working pattern: a minimum of three days per week.
You will be required to work 41 weeks per year, including two weeks full training in August, but will be paid for 52 weeks per year.
Help us continue to be extraordinary, and join us in making the ordinary possible for young people with autism.
