• Setting up and tidying away — preparing the environment before sessions and ensuring areas are left clean and organised afterwards.
• Safeguarding responsibilities — following school policies and procedures to maintain a safe and secure environment for all children.
• Positive relationships — building warm, supportive relationships with pupils and communicating effectively with parents and staff.
• Record keeping — assisting with attendance registers, incident forms and other routine administrative tasks.
