The White House School jobs and careers

About The White House School

At The White House School we are passionate, dedicated and aspirational for all our pupils. We offer a specialist learning provision which emphasises the development of core academic understanding, encourages creativity, celebrates outdoor learning and promotes the growth of essential life skills, including mindfulness. Our dedicated academic focus is balanced with consistent and specialist pastoral and therapeutic support, in order to nurture pupils’ self-esteem, personal, social and emotional development. We are committed to each pupil’s holistic development for them to reach their true academic potential in preparation for their next setting and adult life. ‘Learn and Thrive; Ready to Learn; Prepared for Life.’ This approach reflects the heart of our work – nurturing emotional literacy so pupils are genuinely ready to learn, while equipping them with the life skills they need to be prepared for life. For some, this preparation will involve pathways into employment; for others, developing sustainable social and leisure skills will be the priority. For all, the curriculum will have a strong focus on independent living and community inclusion. Our curriculum has been designed to be able to offer an ambitious learning journey for pupils with a variety of special educational needs. Fundamental British Values and our three school values are woven throughout the curriculum framework. We aim to develop our pupil’s shared understanding of cultural capital and intend to embed these essential life skills and experiences throughout the curriculum, in order to support academic and personal development progress.
