The successful applicant will:

• Have a can-do attitude, a desire and willingness to commit to further training and the high energy levels required when working with children with autism.

• Have experience of working with children and/or adults with special needs and be committed to continual professional development

If successful you will work hard and be dedicated to the pupils of Forest Bridge School. You will have a unique opportunity to help shape the future of a brand new school! You will receive professional development to meet your individual needs and a very supportive Headteacher and Lead Behaviour Analyst to mentor you throughout your career at Forest Bridge School.
