About this Role

You will provide effective support to students who require dedicated one-to-one supervision to access learning, while also supporting the needs of the wider class, including students with SEND.

You will contribute to our mission to deliver excellence in education, transformation in opportunities and build a school to be proud of for all of our community by working under the direction of the Director of Inclusion to support access to learning for students and provide general support to the teacher. Within this role, there may be an aspect of personal care, so knowledge and experience of this is desired.

You will have experience of supporting young learners in an organisational setting, along with an understanding of individual learning styles and the ability to identify potential barriers to learning, using appropriate strategies and coaching skills to help overcome these barriers.
