Job Description:
The Spring School will be a part of the Ambitious about Autism Schools Trust, which was established as a multi-academy trust to develop new free schools. In, the Trust was chosen to develop a new special free school for autistic children and young people in Chessington. Spring School will be a place where autistic children can learn, thrive, achieve, and belong.
We are now looking for an exceptional, creative Occupational Therapist who wants to make a difference to the everyday lives of the young people we work with.
You will be working with the transdisciplinary team to improve outcomes for children and young people through the application of expertise in occupational therapy. You will achieve this through providing high-quality Occupational Therapist therapy advice and support across the three tiers of support (universal, targeted and specialist).
The role involves supporting class teams to create enabling environments and reducing occupational barriers to the curriculum. In addition, you will devise and implement individual and group intervention programmes. You will also write and support the fidelity of Occupational therapy programmes for others to deliver.
This is a fantastic opportunity to work in a brand-new school and make a real impact on the young people we work with.
In return, we offer a wide range of benefits including 40 days holiday, plus bank holidays, a commitment to CPD (Continued Professional Development), excellent career opportunities, professional membership fees paid, a welcome bonus of up to £3,000, and much more!
For further details on how you can make a difference and find out what we have to offer, please see our recruitment pack below.
