Information About The Post
Peter Symonds is a vibrant sixth form college in Winchester which is rated by Ofsted as ‘Outstanding’. We have a large team of committed and talented staff who are at the heart of the success of the College.
The successful candidate will work alongside four other caseworkers to provide ongoing support to students who may have highly complex needs. Duties include: casework; transition planning; exam access arrangements assessments; risk assessments; contributing to reviews and liaising with other professionals.
Study Support Caseworkers work 39 weeks a year which is term time plus a week. The hours are 8:30 – 16:45 per day with a 50 minute lunch (days to be agreed).
Experience of working with students with a diverse range of needs, particularly in respect of social, emotional and mental health needs is essential. Prior experience of having worked with multi-disciplinary teams, students presenting in crisis within an educational setting and students in receipt of Education, Health and Care plans (EHCPs) is desirable but not essential.
You must be physically fit to undertake manual handling and to provide personal care to students with disabilities (with training if required). Most important is empathy and rapport with young people and a genuine desire to help them reach their potential.
Please see advertised EHCP Caseworker and Combined Caseworker positions.
