Ormiston Queensmill Academy is a well-established autism specific school. Although our primary mission is to educate a large and mixed cohort of autistic children and young people in order to offer them the best outcome possible, Ormiston Queensmill is more than a school.
At Queensmill, although we acknowledge the complex needs which are associated with autism, we celebrate our pupils’ differences and uniqueness and we put our children and young people at the centre of our practice. We believe that when autistic children and young people are supported to develop skills in social communication and in sensory/ emotional regulation, they will flourish in other aspects of their life and education.
We are also committed to a multi-professional approach around the child or young person. The team includes class staff, in-house school therapists, parents and external professionals such as social and key workers.
Ormiston Queensmill Academy is a fun place to work, where happiness and wellbeing is an absolute priority for both our young people and staff team. We are looking to appoint staff that are interested in Autism and passionate about supporting autistic pupils to access education both within the school and in the local community. We are looking for individuals who are flexible, empathetic, creative, resilient and eager to learn. We offer a supportive, friendly and dynamic culture within the organisation.
Staff at Queensmill are highly trained in autism and we commit a significant proportion of our annual budget to training and maintaining staff knowledge and resources so that children and young people with autism learn in an environment that understands and is suited to them.
