Job Description

Integrity Education Solutions are supporting the appointment of an experienced Occupational Therapist for a brand-new specialist SEN provision opening in South London from September 2026.

The new school will support pupils aged 7–16 with Autism and associated conditions, including those who may not yet have a formal diagnosis but display traits requiring specialist intervention. The approach will be therapeutic, structured, and ambitious, with a strong focus on rebuilding confidence, independence, and life skills alongside academic achievement. The school forms part of a wider specialist education group committed to delivering high-quality SEND provision across the UK.

This is a rare opportunity to join a new provision and team to help shape the vision, culture and standards of a new school designed to support pupils aged 7–16 years with Autism and associated conditions, many of whom have struggled to access mainstream or specialist education. The school will provide an integrated therapeutic approach, supporting pupils with EHCPs to rebuild confidence, re-engage in learning and achieve meaningful outcomes.

Key Responsibilities

  * Deliver specialist occupational therapy assessments and interventions

  * Support pupils with sensory regulation, anxiety, engagement, and functional skills

  * Work with pupils identified on EHCPs and identify unmet OT needs through observation

  * Develop and implement bespoke sensory programmes and strategies

  * Create individual sensory passports and share strategies with teaching staff

  * Support staff and families to embed OT strategies within home and online learning

  * Contribute to multidisciplinary risk assessments and care planning

  * Write clear, high-quality reports and maintain accurate clinical records

  * Liaise with parents/carers, education staff, and external professionals

Key Requirements

  * Holds a recognised Occupational Therapy qualification

  * Registered with the HCPC and the British College of Occupational Therapists

  * Minimum 3 years’ post-qualification experience, including work with high-risk or complex pupils

  * Strong experience supporting children and young people with SEMH, ASC, trauma, or EBSA

  * Confident working within multidisciplinary teams

  * Highly organised, reflective, and able to work independently in a remote setting

  * Committed to safeguarding and therapeutic, child-centred practice

Salary offered: £58,000 - £65,000 (Dependent on experience)
