Why join Medway?

Located in North Kent, Medway combines the benefits of a compact authority with excellent transport links. London is accessible in around 40 minutes via high-speed rail, while the Kent coastline and countryside are close by. The service is based in Chatham and operates a flexible hybrid-working model.

At Medway, we are committed to making a positive difference to the lives of children, young people and families. We offer:

A comprehensive induction programme designed to prepare you for Educational Psychology doctoral training.

Flexible and hybrid working arrangements supported by excellent IT provision.
Access to a welcoming, collaborative and reflective team culture.

What will you be doing?

Under the guidance and supervision of qualified Educational Psychologists, you will:

Support psychological assessment activities through observations, consultations and direct work with children and young people.
Gather and analyse information to understand strengths, needs and barriers to learning and participation.
Assist with the development of recommendations and written reports for schools, families and professionals.
Deliver evidence-informed interventions to individuals and small groups.
Work collaboratively with families, schools and multi-agency partners to promote positive outcomes.
Contribute to research, evaluation and project work across the service.
Support a range of training, workshops and professional development activities.
Maintain accurate records and contribute to service monitoring and evaluation.
Develop your own understanding of applied psychology, education and child development in preparation for professional Educational Psychology training.
