Description

Huge Small Victories
Being a maintenance worker in our school means being part of something big.

You'll be doing your bit to make sure the school building is a great place to be for our young people.


Get out what you put in

You'll do all the general, day-to-day repairs needed to keep our school up and running, drive the school vehicles and keep them in good working order, as well as making sure the school grounds and garden are kept neat and tidy.

You'll also be a familiar, friendly face, this means our young people will sometimes stop to chat to you so we'll give you some training on child safeguarding to give you that extra confidence


One of the best environments in SEND


Enabling young people to progress and succeed is part of the DNA of Cedar House School and this is achieved by a commitment to truly celebrating the individuality and talents of every young person.


The primary provision ensures that a nurturing environment and extensive therapeutic support allows a seamless transition to a secondary school that boasts a broad curriculum and far-ranging vocational offer.

In addition, the state of the art residential offering enables those young people who reside at the school to benefit from the 24-hour curriculum, while living in a truly homely and personalised environment.


The result is that each young person develops the skills and confidence to achieve both academic and life successes, where they are given the launchpad to release their potential and leave ready to live life to the full.

We were recently recognised as Good by Ofsted.
