How would you like to get paid for five days, but only work four?

At Outcomes First Group, we believe in better work/life balance -- and we're putting wellbeing first.

Many of our schools have already introduced the 4DWW -- and others are preparing to roll it out as soon as they reach full staffing. So whether it's already in place or just around the corner, now's the perfect time to join #teamOFG.

This is a unique opportunity to help build something from the ground up -- creating a learning environment where children and young people with autism, learning difficulties, and complex needs can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.
