Oasis Nurture
Oasis Nurture is a project that is carried out on the Village. It is a therapeutic intervention designed specifically for those children who might be described as the missing middle – those who do not meet the threshold for an ECHP but who nevertheless struggle to engage with the curriculum for a variety of reasons.
Oasis Nurture is just completing its pilot phase, working with four local schools, offering a two day a week intervention to a small group of children.
As the Clinical Lead, you will ensure the highest standards of therapeutic care, support a team of dedicated practitioners and teachers and collaborate with schools, social services, and mental health agencies to create a wraparound support system for children.
The Role
In this role you will be:
· Providing clinical leadership and case management expertise
· Holding and managing a small caseload of complex therapy cases, providing direct intervention where needed.
· Supervising the team and leading reflective practice
· Fostering a culture of collaboration, curiosity, and kindness within the team.
· Ensuring programme excellence & development, working alongside the leadership team to refine therapeutic models, policies, and safeguarding protocols.
· Ensuring all practice is evidence-based, inclusive, and child-centred.
· Managing data and outcomes, evaluating and reporting impact
Oasis Nurture is not an Alternative Provision; it is a part time intervention designed to support local schools and children and their families.
As this is a newly created role, you will expect some evolution of the role as a result of the development of the project, your insightful input and our combined learning. At the same time, the role provides incredible opportunities for the right person.
To apply, please send your CV and a Supporting Statement (no more than two A4 pages).
