Summary
Horizons College is an innovative and inclusive specialist education provider for learners aged 16-25 with learning difficulties and complex needs. We proudly opened our campus in Royal Wootton Bassett’s Interface Business Park in September 2022 and were rated "Good" by Ofsted in March 2024. Which was a fantastic achievement which our team were proud of on our journey to success.
If you are empathetic, patient and flexible within a team as well as passionate and able to put the learners at the heart of all their best efforts, then we would love to hear from you.
We are looking for empathetic and adaptable individuals, who thrive under pressure and have a natural ability to solve challenges. You will also need physical and emotional resilience to work with young people with a primary diagnosis of Autism, some of whom have other complex needs. You will be keen to use our positive behavioural approach, have a commitment to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people.
At Horizons College, our mission is clear: Empowering learners to shape their future, and this role is critical in helping us achieve that vision. If this mission resonates with you as an education professional ready for the next step in your career – we want to hear from you.
