Residential Support Workers (Working at SEN School)
We are working with a large SEN school just outside of Ashford who are looking for experienced and qualified Residential Support Workers to start throughout October and into November 2026.
The role is based at the Residential site for the SEN school. Working hours are 1pm – 11pm.
The school is a coeducational, day school which caters for students across Key Stages 1 – Key Stage 4 with EHC Plans of social, emotional, and behavioural difficulties and a range of additional learning difficulties including Autism and Moderate Learning Difficulties. They also have a separate site nearby that supports children with Social, Emotional and Mental Health issues.
You will be rewarded with excellent rates of pay of £15 per hour.
It is essential that you have previous experience supporting children or adults within a Residential care setting and being able to help children with their home based work who need extra academic support.
Your key duties
- Support students 1:1 and on a small group basis within the Residential home.
- Follow IEPs.
- Manage any challenging behaviour at times.
- Provide encouragement and help teach the young people life skills.
- Must have good knowledge of Safeguarding.
IMPORTANT – You need to have or be willing to pay for a DBS on the update service. It also has to be an Enhanced DBS with a children’s barred check for us to place you at either a school or Residential Care setting.
If you have experience supporting young people with SEN and are looking for a long-term opportunity within a small and supportive specialist school, we’d love to hear from you.
