Huge Small Victories

Being a cleaner in our school means being part of something big. You’ll be the one who keeps the school clean and tidy, so our young people can learn in the best possible environment.

Get out what you put in

You’ll be responsible for keeping all areas of the school building clean, meanwhile being aware of the COSHH and Health and Safety implications of the role. You’ll liaise with the Site Manager and assist with any additional duties as and when needed.

One of the best environments in SEND

Westmorland School is used to receiving awards, accolades and glowing praise from parents and professionals. However, what sets it apart is its unique ability to cater for two distinct areas of special educational need, in separate individualised and bespoke learning environments, all within one school. The development of two curriculum approaches for both ASD and SEMH pupil cohorts is successfully and harmoniously delivered through the school’s BEARS and CATS settings.

The success of Westmorland’s differentiated approach is evident from the schools continued development, external recognition, achievement of Ofsted outstanding verdicts in all areas, and, most significantly, the exemplary outcomes it realises for its pupils.
