About us




As an Educational Psychologist or Senior Educational Psychologists for Leicester City Council, you will be part of a multi-disciplinary, diverse team that is friendly, supportive, and well-regarded, working in a unique and vibrant multi-cultural city.




We have EPs working in a range of areas including with the virtual school, international new arrivals, anti-bullying (Positive Peaceful Places) and with our designated specialist provisions in mainstream settings.




What you’ll be involved with




We are involved in exciting new areas of work, including working with our local MHST team on an NHS funded project, to strengthen the mental health support in our city schools. We have an integral role in the LA EBSA strategy and are working closely with our Children’s Hospital School.

As one of the Change Programme Partners, we are exploring different ways of working through the EHC assessment process, including collaboration with our specialist teachers, and this is supporting us to be up to date with our EHCA workload.




Your development




All of our EPs have protected time for development work which involves training, consultation and local area strategy work with a range of partners, alongside an expanding ELSA training and supervision offer, and we encourage all staff to develop areas of professional interest.

We work with all of our City schools through a link EP arrangement, giving us the opportunity to develop our creative delivery of psychology and promote new ways of working. EPs and TEPs have the opportunity to work together on activities such as PATH and Circle of Adults, and we are progressing our work on culturally responsive and anti-racist practice.

We are developing and focusing our training offer, to be more responsive to the changes and challenges that schools are experiencing, and provide workshops for parents and staff on topics including EBSA, neuro-affirming practice, precision teaching and staff wellbeing.




The roles




There are full time and part time positions available on a permanent basis. We welcome applications from experienced Eps looking to step into a senior role all the way to newly qualified EPs, or EPs currently in training who are keen to explore new ways of working and fresh ideas. An enhanced DBS check is required for this post. We look forward to working with you.
