Hear from the Pace team

Our team is what makes Pace special, so we are committed to caring for each individual member of staff.

We support:

Your wellbeing:

You’ll find mental health first aiders on-site and a regular drop-in to sit and talk. Staff have access to counselling and online support. Our annual wellbeing day promotes activities such as yoga and mindfulness.

Your personal development:

All staff follow a framework which clearly sets out Pace’s expected values and behaviours. In a values-led organisation, your conduct is key – and you’ll have a clear pathway for progression.

Your work-life balance:

At Pace, children are at the heart of everything we do, and we apply the same family-focus to our staff. Flexible working is common, and many staff work term-time only.

Pace operates at our two centres in Aylesbury in Buckinghamshire, and in three other local special schools. Your place of work – and opportunities for flexible working – will depend on your role.

Pace is a safer recruitment employer. It means our recruitment process is designed to ensure staff and volunteers are suitable to work with children and young people.
