This role is about seeing the person first — and helping them take real, practical steps towards a more independent future.

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?
