In a world where the demand for clinical support is increasing daily, we understand the importance and value of the work you carry out. Your unique skills and expertise are critical to building better outcomes for our students. This is why we aim to have a multidisciplinary clinical team for each of our sites to provide this vital provision in collaboration with our education teams.

Creating an environment where our students can truly flourish and grow in independence is key.

We understand the value of helping our employees develop in their careers. For clinicians to achieve their Continued Professional Development (CPD) goals we offer a £2000 training allowance, so that you can complete role specific training tailored to your individual requirements once your probation has been completed.

Every student is unique. Education should be personalised around them.

For more than 20 years, OFG Education has developed a deep understanding of how education designed around the individual can improve outcomes. We know that when students are understood - their strengths, interests, ambitions, starting points and needs - we can create personalised pathways that help them achieve and thrive.

Across our specialist schools, independent schools, online provision and support services, every student benefits from education shaped around who they are and what they can become. We combine educational and clinical expertise with research, evidence-informed practice, innovation and technology, underpinned by consistently high standards.

From deep specialist support to exceptional academic challenge, we are ambitious for every student, helping them achieve academically, discover their strengths and develop the knowledge, skills, confidence and attitudes they need for learning, work and life.

Every student. Every pathway. Every future.
