About Leicester Therapeutic School

Join the Team at Leicester Therapeutic School

Leicester Therapeutic School is a nurturing and inclusive setting in the heart of Leicester, dedicated to supporting children aged 4 to 11 with cognition and learning needs as well as social and emotional needs. We are looking for passionate, dedicated and compassionate professionals who want to make a meaningful difference in the lives of our pupils.

Our school is guided by the belief that every child deserves the chance to thrive and succeed. This is captured in our motto — “Building foundations through nurture and mindset.” As a member of our team, you will play a vital role in helping pupils develop the skills, confidence and resilience they need to progress academically, socially and emotionally.

At Leicester Therapeutic School, we take a child-centred, relationship-based approach. Many of our pupils face barriers to learning or challenges with communication, emotional regulation and confidence. Our staff are committed to looking beyond these difficulties to recognise each child's potential, strengths and individuality. We value creativity, patience and a willingness to adapt in order to meet children wherever they are in their learning journey.

As part of our team, you will contribute to a broad, engaging and therapeutic curriculum tailored to a wide range of cognition and learning needs. Staff work collaboratively to deliver adaptive teaching, multisensory learning opportunities and targeted interventions that help pupils access the curriculum in meaningful and achievable ways. We encourage innovative thinking, reflective practice and ongoing professional development to ensure our approaches remain effective and responsive.

Our environment supports emotional growth as much as academic progress. Staff help pupils build self-esteem, develop resilience and form positive relationships through nurturing routines, structured support and creative indoor and outdoor learning experiences. Whether through sensory-based activities, nature exploration, expressive arts or play-based learning, our staff work together to create experiences that re-ignite curiosity and joy.

Working with families, carers and external professionals is central to what we do. We strive for open communication, shared priorities and a consistent approach so that every child receives the care and understanding they need. As a member of our school community, you will be part of a team that values collaboration, respect and trust.

If you are committed to making a lasting difference, passionate about inclusive education, and eager to help children build strong foundations through nurture and a growth mindset, we would love to hear from you. At Leicester Therapeutic School, you will not only support pupils on their journey — you will grow professionally and personally as part of a supportive and inspiring team.
