Join to apply for the College Support Worker role at Salutem Care and Education
Beaumont College supports special school leavers including those with complex autism and social and emotional challenges. Some of our students have excellent language skills, while others may communicate in different ways. All have learning difficulties. For individuals in this group of students, they may have developed strategies for communication over their lives that aren’t as helpful or easy to understand as they reach adulthood.
Working as part of a multidisciplinary team, our ethos and culture is to support our young people to develop strategies focusing on positive behaviours, reducing and ideally removing the need for our young people to deploy unhelpful strategies to communicate their needs, be heard, listened to and understood. You will work with identified students as part of a small team around the student, enabling and empowering them to prepare for fulfilling busy lives as young adults.
Job Overview
Do you have a passion and experience or are interested in supporting students with long term health conditions? Our students love to come to College and enjoy learning. Working directly with students in and around sessions you will provide the care and support they need and rely on to be able to access their learning.
The students you will support with have long term health conditions, they may be reliant on you for personal care, which we provide with dignity and respect. As Special School Leavers we are committed to enabling our students to be heard, listened to and understood. And in return you will enjoy seeing the students you work with become adults and prepare for busy and fulfilling lives as graduates.
Job Details
As a student support worker, you will be supporting students in classroom environments, assisting in accessing the community, and participating in activities to help develop life skills together with assisting them with their personal care needs. You will contribute to creating a nurturing environment where students can lead fulfilling lives, free from fear, and in line with their needs and aspirations.
You will promote and empower students to actively participate in college activities by providing support within college sessions and in the community at large. Effective communication serves as the cornerstone of our approach. By truly understanding the needs of our students, team members, and the organisation, you will ensure seamless implementation of an agreed care plan.
