Academics Ltd
Central London

Location: Croydon, London
Start Date: ASAP
Contract: Full-time, Term-time only (Mon-Fri 9:00am-5:00pm)
Pay: £95 - £105 per day

Are you a psychology graduate or someone passionate about working in special education, looking to gain hands-on experience before pursuing a career in therapy, clinical psychology, or social care?

Working alongside experienced teachers, therapists, and support staff, you will support students in accessing the curriculum and developing vital communication, social, and life skills within a safe, structured, and nurturing environment tailored to their unique needs.

What this role offers:

* 1:1 and small group work tailored to individual needs
* Experience in a multidisciplinary team – ideal for aspiring psychologists, therapists, or SEN professionals
* A meaningful opportunity to positively impact the lives of young people with complex needs
* Ongoing training and development in specialist education approaches

What we're looking for:

* A keen interest in special education, disability, and child development
* Patience, empathy, and resilience
* Previous experience with children or vulnerable individuals (desirable but not essential)
* A genuine commitment to inclusive education and supporting every child to thrive

This is a full-time, term-time only role starting as soon as possible. The school is looking for someone who can commit for the full academic year – and possibly longer – to ensure continuity and strong relationships with students.

Apply now to be part of a passionate team making a real difference in the lives of extraordinary young people.
