About This Role

The Rise Partnership Trust (RPT) is a growing trust, currently consisting of three (3) specialist educational settings: Manor School, The Avenue School and Wembley Manor. The trust caters for primary and secondary pupils and has a committed, well-established therapy team.

Our effective multi-disciplinary collaboration and embedding of therapy provision has been recognised as an ‘Area of Excellence’ by Challenge Partners. This was also highlighted in the recent Ofsted reports for Manor School and The Avenue School:

Teachers, support staff and the therapy team […] work collaboratively to devise a highly skilled approach to supporting pupils. Together, they ensure that pupils’ needs are fully identified and learning is suitably adapted to help them meet their targets. This enables pupils to achieve exceptionally well.’ (Manor School Ofsted report 2025)

‘The speech and language therapists, occupational therapists and inclusion team all work in unison with the teaching staff.’ ‘Parents […] said that the teachers and therapists are wonderful in supporting their children’s learning and development, and in supporting them as parents.’

(Avenue School Ofsted report 2023)

The Rise Partnership Trust offers:

  • an established Therapy team (OTs and SaLTs) who are passionate about embedding therapy into the school setting
  • the opportunity to work collaboratively with families, class teams as well as the wider multi-agency support team (e.g. Family Support Practitioner, Behaviour Analysts/Inclusion Practitioners and intervention specialists)
  • a robust induction programme and rich CPD offer, including internal and external training as well as regular clinical supervision
  • a varied caseload across 5 Key Stages (EYFS, KS1, KS2, KS3, KS4)
  • well-resourced learning environments
  • a competitive salary, pension and excellent holiday entitlement

The successful applicant will ideally:

  • have experience working with a neurodivergent population
  • be a committed, friendly, and enthusiastic team player
  • be a reflective practitioner who is looking to build on their existing clinical skills and develop their specialism in a SEND setting

We welcome TNQPs to apply.
