We are looking for enthusiastic, innovative Speech and Language Therapists who want to develop their career, skills and knowledge in a specialist educational setting from Reception to 6th form. Our priority is to recruit professionals with an outstanding skill set and exceptional interactional skills; we are looking for individuals who can ensure our young people achieve and exceed their potential. In return we offer a competitive salary and benefits package and excellent support and training.

You will work with a small but complex caseload, where intensive therapy with students is encouraged. Your working day will be diverse and involve working with class groups, smaller groups and with individual students, whilst also providing a universal level of support across the settings. You will be involved in training and in the ongoing development of a needs-led model of service delivery across the school setting. If you believe you can help our learners to fulfil their potential at school, at home and in their communities and are looking for a fresh challenge, then this role may be just what you are looking for. We offer supervision, frequent CPD, strong collaborative practice and peer support. An excellent work-life balance is also an added perk of joining our friendly and supportive team.

The Woodlands School is a special school which is committed to the highest quality integrated education and therapy provision. Our students have a range of speech, language and communication difficulties (including Autism Spectrum Disorder) with associated learning and/or behavioural difficulties. We support students from Reception to 6th form.
