Job Description Therapists at NSIT play a key role in supporting neurodivergent students by integrating therapy-informed strategies into the daily learning experience. Whether specializing in Occupational Therapy (OT) or Speech and Language Pathology (SLP), Therapists work directly with students, collaborate with educators, and contribute to a dynamic, student-centered learning environment. This is an integrated, frontline role. Therapists are active members of the school team, supporting students in both one-on-one and group settings while also contributing to staff training, planning, and collaboration.
Company Info NSIT is a small, new, early-stage school committed to nurturing the unique needs of all children, founded by Joichi Ito (President of Chiba Institute of Technology) and Rizuki Matsumoto (President of Machino-Hoikuen Community School / Director of CEO, Machino Research Institute Inc.) in Fall of 2024. We aim to be a catalyst for educational, societal and cultural change that recognizes and elevates the strengths of neurodivergent learners, while also recognizing their unique needs. Our goal is to create a "New Standard" for future developmental and learning environments for children.

This is a unique opportunity to be part of a team developing an innovative educational setting and approach. At NSIT, we value the uniqueness of each young person, embracing neurodiversity and recognizing that every individual thinks, feels, and interacts with the world in their own way. This role offers the chance to contribute to something truly transformative - shaping an approach that not only supports the children and young people we serve but also drives meaningful change in education and society as a whole.
