The Remarkable Group has been established for over 50 years, providing the highest quality services for autistic young people. Wargrave House School (ages 5 – 16) & Ascent College (ages 16 – 25) operate a non‑maintained special school and independent specialist college with an excellent reputation for delivering outstanding education and care to Autistic young people. We are the first national provider to receive Beacon status from the National Autistic Society.

- Work collaboratively with Student Learning Mentors and specialist teams.
This is a unique opportunity to teach in a setting where success is measured not just in qualifications, but in confidence, independence and real‑life outcomes.

- Dedicated Student Learning Mentors in every class
- A consistent and proactive approach to behaviour support
