Contract: Full-time | Temp-to-perm opportunity
"Every small step towards independence can be life-changing — and you could be part of that journey."
In a forward-thinking specialist school in East London, young people aged 16 to 19 are being supported not only to learn but to live — gaining the confidence, skills, and resilience they’ll need to thrive beyond the classroom.
These students may have complex needs, including physical disabilities, neurodivergence, and non-verbal communication. But they are also creative, curious, and full of individuality. This role is about seeing the person first — and helping them take real, practical steps towards a more independent future.
What Learning Looks Like Here:
It might be:
Navigating public transport with support
Preparing a meal from scratch
Managing sensory input in unfamiliar spaces
Expressing needs and preferences through AAC, signs, or symbols
Building the confidence to say, “I can do this” — even in small ways
What You'll Be Doing Day-to-Day:
Supporting a small group of students on bespoke pathways
Facilitating life skills sessions like cooking, shopping, and budgeting
Using communication tools such as Makaton, AAC devices, or visual aids
Providing personal care (feeding, toileting, hoisting — full training given)
Encouraging self-regulation and supporting emotional wellbeing
Being a consistent, understanding presence in each young person’s journey
Who This Role Could Be Perfect For:
Someone with experience in SEND, care work, or youth services
Or someone new to the field, but driven by a clear sense of purpose
A calm, empathetic individual who responds thoughtfully under pressure
Someone who values quiet progress and meaningful moments
A team player who believes in inclusion, dignity, and possibility
This isn’t just another classroom — it’s a stepping stone into adulthood. You’ll be helping young people explore who they are and what’s possible for them beyond school.
Why Choose This School:
A collaborative, person-centred approach to education and care
A nurturing, well-resourced environment designed for complex needs
Excellent training and support from a team that values your growth
Real opportunities to build a future in education, therapy, or SEND
Why Parker Smith Inclusion?

No umbrella payroll – always PAYE, with no hidden costs
Specialist roles you won’t find elsewhere
