Make a Real Difference Every Day

Academics is delighted to be recruiting in Lingfield for compassionate and dedicated Residential Support Workers to join a SEN residential unit.

This is an incredibly rewarding opportunity to support children and young people with special educational needs, helping them to develop confidence, independence and essential life skills in a safe, nurturing environment.

No two days are the same, and every day brings the opportunity to positively impact a young person's life.

The Role

As a Residential Support Worker, you will:

Provide high-quality care and emotional support to students within the residential setting.
Encourage independence and promote personal development.
Support students with daily routines, social activities and life skills.
Help create a safe, welcoming and supportive home-from-home environment.
Work collaboratively with teachers, therapists and the wider care team to ensure the best outcomes for every child.

What We're Looking For

We're looking for caring, patient and enthusiastic individuals who are passionate about supporting children and young people with additional needs.

You will ideally have:

A positive and compassionate approach.
Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
The ability to work as part of a supportive team.
Resilience, reliability and a genuine desire to make a difference.

Previous experience in care, education or support work is beneficial but not essential, as full training and ongoing professional development will be provided.

Why Apply?

Term-time only working (39 weeks per year).
Monday to Friday schedule with no weekend working.
Full-time and part-time opportunities available.
Competitive salary based on qualifications and experience.
Ongoing training and career development opportunities.
A welcoming and supportive team environment.
The opportunity to make a lasting difference to the lives of children and young people every day.

If you're ready to inspire, encourage and change lives every day, we'd love to hear from you. Apply today and take the next step in your education career with Academics.

Alternatively, if this role isn't quite right for you, we'd still love to hear from you. Contact us on (phone number removed) to discuss other opportunities, or refer a friend who may be the perfect fit.

Academics is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. All applicants will be subject to a face-to-face registration, satisfactory references and an Enhanced DBS check.
