The Cedars is a school for children with social, emotional and mental health needs, many of whom are also neurodivergent. Our children may also have had adverse childhood experiences. We currently cater for children from 5 to 11 years old with 70 primary places. From September 2026, we will be expanding our provision to have a KS3 cohort with 16 places.

At The Cedars we prioritise relationships, emotional safety and consistency, recognising that when children feel safe, valued and understood, they are far more able to engage with learning.

We are currently reorganising our Admin team and are looking to appoint a friendly, efficient and professional Clerical Assistant who will also have responsibility for welfare/medical support to the school community.

The successful applicant will join a team consisting of the School Business Manager and Office Manager in a busy office environment and will support them in providing efficient and accurate administration support to the school.
