Make a Difference Beyond Residential Care - Join Education in Halifax

Are you a dedicated Residential Care Worker looking for a new challenge where your skills can truly shine? At Academics Educational Recruitment, we're supporting schools and SEN provisions across Halifax who are eager to welcome compassionate, experienced professionals like you.

Your background in residential care has equipped you with invaluable skills - behaviour management, emotional support, safeguarding awareness, and resilience. These are exactly what schools need to support young people with additional needs to thrive in a structured learning environment.

Why make the move into education?

• Build meaningful, long-term relationships with students
• Support children with Special Educational Needs (SEN) to achieve their potential
• Enjoy more consistent working hours compared to residential shifts

What we're looking for:

• Experience working with children or young people in residential or care settings
• Strong behaviour management and communication skills
• A patient, empathetic, and proactive approach
• A genuine passion for supporting vulnerable learners

What we offer:

• Competitive daily pay rates
• Ongoing training and CPD opportunities
• A dedicated consultant supporting your transition into education
• Opportunities for long-term and permanent roles

If you're ready to take your experience into a new and rewarding environment, we'd love to hear from you.
