Quokka Education is proud to be supporting an Outstanding day and residential special school for 97 boys aged 10-16 with a range of needs including ADHD, autism, and challenging behaviour.

The residential unit provides weekday evening placements for up to 20 pupils, creating a safe, secure, and therapeutic environment where young people can thrive.

We're looking for a compassionate, warm-hearted Residential Child Care Worker to cover maternity leave from October 2025 (term-time only, three evenings per week). This is a rewarding role, working alongside a dedicated, highly skilled team to create a caring and stimulating environment.

What you'll be doing:
- Acting as a positive role model for children in residence
- Building trusting relationships that help pupils feel safe and cared for
- Taking part in activities that engage and inspire
- Responding with empathy, patience, and consistency - even when behaviour is challenging

Who we're looking for:
- People with a genuine passion for supporting children and young people
- The ability to stay calm, kind, and respectful at all times
- Team players who value inclusion, nurture, and consistency
- Positive, energetic, and resilient individuals

What the school offers:

- Excellent training and ongoing professional development
- A purposeful role where your support truly makes a difference
