New College Worcester is a specialist school for blind and partially sighted young people, committed to enabling every student to achieve their full potential and removing barriers to success. Through a highly personalised curriculum, expert specialist teaching and a unique Waking Day approach, learning and development extend beyond the classroom to build independence, confidence and life skills. NCW provides a safe, supportive and aspirational environment with high expectations for academic achievement, personal growth and employability, alongside a nationally recognised outreach service supporting visually impaired students in mainstream settings.

This role will be to support the effective safeguarding of students by acting as a key point of contact for safeguarding concerns, maintaining accurate records, supporting referrals and multi-agency work, monitoring safeguarding actions, and contributing to a culture where students are safe, listened to and supported to achieve positive outcomes. This should include support for the introduction and embedding of adult safeguarding arrangements for students who are aged 18 or over, or who may transition into adult services, ensuring concerns are identified, recorded, escalated and referred in line with adult safeguarding procedures.
