\n Introduction\n

New College Worcester is a residential School and College for young people aged 11– 20 who are blind or vision impaired. Outside the College timetable, our Activities Team works with our young people on leisure activities, outdoor pursuits and sports that challenge our young people both physically and mentally, improving their health and crucially building confidence, self-esteem and independence.

The Activities Department aims to offer activities for all students. We provide a range of camps, residential experiences and overseas trips. There is an onsite youth club that offers a range of tactile craft activities as well as fun games such as darts, pool and showdown. Students are also supported to attend clubs and other events in the wider community. Through the activities that we provide, we aim to enhance the students time and experience here at the College and to develop their personal and social skills.

Our work with the students takes place primarily outside of normal school hours, in the evenings (between16.00 and 21.00) and at the weekends, including overnight stays on trips. The role involves both leading and helping other staff to run the activities. It also involves driving both the College cars and minibuses as an integral part of the role as many activities take place off-site.

To support the Activities Co-Ordinator in managing and maintaining a range of equipment associated with activities.
