Staying Close Team Leader
- Exeter, Devon
- Full Time
- £36,581 - £40,444 per annum
Fixed-term/secondment for 6 months INTERNAL DCC EMPLOYEES ONLY Staying Close is a model which provides an enhanced support package for young people leaving care from children’s homes or fostering and is designed to be a comparable offer to the option to Stay Put, which supports young people in foster care to remain with their former foster carers until age 21. Staying Close provides an offer of move-on accommodation, alongside a package of practical and emotional support, provided by a Personal Adviser and support staff. These bespoke packages of support help develop their confidence and skills for independent living, and for their emotional health and wellbeing. Devon County Council have recently made being Care Experienced a protected characteristic. This is a huge achievement for those who have been in the care of the local authority, but there is still a long way to go. Now is the time to ‘bridge the gap’ in the support and guidance provided to Children and Young People who are Care Experienced. So… do you want to be involved in a new and exciting opportunity? Do you have what it takes to make a difference to the lives of care experienced young people? This is a fantastic Department of Education initiative, to improve the outcomes for Care Experienced people when transitioning from adolescents to adulthood. Your role will manage and monitor a caseload of Young People, aged 18-24 years old, who have varied and often complex levels of needs. You will ensure that Care Experienced adults, and those transitioning into adulthood, are placed at the centre of our service, are treated courteously and fairly, and that their voices are heard. Your role will be fully focused on the needs of the Care Experienced, and be led by those needs in the decisions you are making. You will oversee the day to day running of the supported accommodation, and other practical issues for Young People, and be able to provide solutions or referrals where necessary. You will be passionate about making a difference to the lives of Care Experienced people, along with the ability to advise, befriend, mentor, and support them. This role will require you to provide coaching and mentoring support to less experienced members of the team, or to those working with particularly complex Young People. You will also be able to lead on specific areas of practice and service development relevant to the needs of Care Experienced People.

Teacher - Devon Hospitals’ Short Stay School
- Exeter, Devon
- Full Time
- MPS
To start 1st January 2027 Fixed term for 12 months (potentially extended pending funding discussions) As a Devon LA maintained school (4-16), we offer a unique and supportive environment, making our school a rewarding place to work and learn. We are supported by a committed group of active Governors. We teach a wide variety of young people, some of whom are amongst the highest attaining in the country and some who have a range of additional learning needs. We teach young people who are at the beginning of their school careers and, sadly, some who are near the end of their lives. The majority of our students are of secondary age. We provide education for young people who are in-patients at the RDUH Trust, but most of our work is through the LA Section 19 referral process. Learning happens at our Outreach Centre in Exeter and online for those who are not able to attend in person for medical reasons. We are looking to appoint a highly qualified teacher who can teach a range of subjects at Key Stages 3 and 4, ideally including at least one core subject to GCSE. The post will initially be for a 12-month period based at our Outreach Centre in Exeter with possible travel to The Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital in Exeter and, very occasionally, to the North Devon District Hospital in Barnstaple. You will be required to teach across the full age and attainment range. Learning takes place in very small groups and is often 1:1 due to the nature of our students’ medical needs. The post holder will adhere to the professional duties of a teacher as set out in the School Teachers’ Pay and Conditions of Service document and school policies. As part of our team, you will be well-supported in your professional development and we pride ourselves on our culture which allows teachers to thrive in their roles, and which prioritises staff wellbeing. This post could serve as an ideal reminder of why you came into teaching in the first place – to make a real difference to individual children’s lives. For an informal discussion about the post please contact Laura Webb, Headteacher on 07458 095329, or email: laura.webb@devon.gov.uk . We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and vulnerable adults, and expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
