Description:
Are you ready to make a difference in the lives of children with special needs? Join us in creating a nurturing, inclusive environment where every child can thrive!
At Classroom Recruiters, we believe in empowering children with special needs to become more independent, and we're looking for passionate individuals to join our team. We're seeking dedicated staff members who are committed to providing the highest level of care possible to children in a residential setting who have special needs. We are recruiting on behalf of a residential children’s home in the Burton area with fantastic facilities for the children and an excellent training program for staff.
* Who Are We Looking For?
Do you believe that every child deserves the opportunity to thrive in a supportive environment? Are you compassionate, empathetic, and eager to make a real impact in the world of care? We're searching for individuals with mountains of passion and energy, regardless of their background in childcare. While prior experience in care or a related sector is preferred, what matters most is your dedication to making a positive difference in the lives of children.
* The Environment You Will Be Working In:
Join a team of approximately 12 supportive coworkers who share the common goal of creating a nurturing environment for children with additional needs. From assisting with daily routines to participating in engaging educational and vocational activities, you'll play a vital role in enriching the lives of these children. Plus, enjoy the unique perk of working on a site with its own farm and plenty of outdoor activities for the children to enjoy.
* The Children You Will Be Working With:
Our children live on-site year-round and have a range of special needs, including autism, complex needs, and emotional challenges. While personal care isn't required, a level of empathy is essential. You'll have the opportunity to build meaningful relationships with these children and contribute to their growth and development.
* Training and Opportunities for Progression:
Regardless of your experience level, you'll undergo a comprehensive induction and receive ongoing support and training. From shadowing experienced staff to gaining additional qualifications in health and social care, we're committed to helping you reach your full potential as a caregiver.
* Shift Pattern and Pay:
Enjoy a set rota and the stability of working at one site. Your shift pattern will consist of 3 days on and 3 days off, with hours from 07:00 to 22:00. Join a team of around 10-12 other support workers and receive a starting salary of £28,000.
* What Makes This Role Different?
This role stands out due to our high staffing numbers and state-of-the-art facilities designed to support the children's needs both therapeutically and socially. With its own farm and expansive grounds, our site offers ample opportunities for outdoor activities and holistic development.
* Interview Process:
To apply, complete a comprehensive application and vetting form. Following that, you'll have a 45-minute interview with the head teacher on-site. Full vetting will be conducted before your start date to ensure compliance and safety.
