ABOUT US
Phoenix Learning and Care works with children and young adults giving opportunities for life and living, a real sense of achievement and a pathway to an independent future. We provide space where individuals can flourish.
We operate more than 40 settings across the South & South West of England and South Wales including residential Children’s homes and Adult supported living settings. We provide education in Schools delivering Key Stage 2 to Key Stage 4 curriculum for those with special educational needs and further education through our specialist College.
Our mission is to meet an individual’s social and/or educational needs. We enable people to flourish by always putting those we support at the centre of our thinking and practice.
Our aim is simple; to improve an individual’s skills and abilities, help them cope with their life experiences and give them the knowledge and skills to be effective, productive and valued members of society.
We employ over 600 talented team members, including our own integrated therapies team and support settings, who work together combining the Phoenix HEART Team Charter of Honesty, Empathy, Aspiration, Respect and Teamwork to provide the very best education and care to those we support.
We are regulated by Ofsted, CIW, Estyn and CQC. We support all aspects of robust safeguarding.

THERAPEUTIC SUPPORT
At Phoenix we have our own multi-professional Integrated Therapies Team (ITT) which includes Psychological, Creative Arts Psychotherapies, counselling, Speech and Language Therapy and Occupational Therapy.
We adopt a trauma and attachment informed approach within a neurodiversity affirming team. We pride ourselves on offering a high quality, evidence-based therapeutic approach providing People we support with the tools they need to overcome the obstacles they face in life.
The ITT are integral to the core values of the organisation and as a team we believe our therapeutic approach provides the people we support with the tools they need to overcome the obstacles they face in life.
We are able to provide bespoke individual therapies for the People we support where this is assessed and commissioned as appropriate. We respect each child and young adult as an individual. We get to know them and have a warm and friendly approach, so that we can really understand their needs and how they feel about themselves, others, and life. This helps us to identify their needs because we recognise that one size does not fit all, and the relationships we build are integral to us developing a bespoke therapeutic package.
RECRUITMENT
At Phoenix we want individuals to flourish. This is true for those we support but also those who are part of our teams.
We work hard to make our company a great place to work; our Phoenix values are NURTURE, FLOURISH, GROW and through these values you can make a positive difference to those we support by enabling individuals to flourish whilst also developing your skill and abilities to help develop your career in line with your personal goals.
We invest significantly in training and development, we will support you in your role and take you to new places and experiences every day in supporting those we look after both in our homes and schools or out and about in the community, at work or exploring interests.
If you want to progress our Leadership Programme can facilitate that. We have a strong heritage of developing managers and supporting them to lead their own teams or allowing individuals to progress in our Integrated Therapies Team. Phoenix is a growing company – grow with us.
