Beaumont College is a very special place. We provide highly personalised pathways for special school leavers, and we support them in the journey to become adults, and to live independent and fulfilling lives as far as possible.
Our main college is located on a 7 acre site with a wide range of accommodation for students to live and learn. As part of the estates team, post holders will be skilled or semi-skilled in a tool-trade such as plumbing, carpentry or electrical work and be seeking an opportunity to use those skills as part of the management of the existing site, and support the process to move to a new site and continue the works there.
The Beaumont College family work closely together to provide opportunities for special school leavers to prepare for full and busy lives as adults. Empathy, patience and understanding of special educational needs or a willingness and aptitude to learn are key to the postholders appointment.
