School Based Occupational Therapist Kingston, South West London Full-time Permanent £32,000 - £45,000 Term-time Only + 5 Weeks Holiday Work

Some schools talk about being therapeutic . This one lives and breathes it. You ll feel it the moment you walk through the door a calm, welcoming environment where children who ve struggled elsewhere finally feel safe enough to learn, play, and thrive. It s a setting built around helping children with speech, language and communication needs, often alongside sensory processing and motor coordination challenges. And they re looking for a Paediatric Occupational Therapist to join their team. What makes this different? You won t be juggling huge caseloads or trying to squeeze in therapy at the edges of a busy day. Here, therapy is fully integrated into the curriculum. You ll be working closely with teachers, speech and language therapists, art therapists and support staff. You ll have time and space to build proper relationships with your students and see the progress you re helping them make. You ll mainly support Upper Primary and Secondary pupils (roughly ages 9 19), many of whom arrive with low confidence and big barriers. But over time, you ll help them build life skills, independence and pride in what they can do whether that s handwriting, cutting with scissors, or learning to regulate their emotions.
