All students throughout this school have associated learning difficulties with the moderate to severe range.

The school pride themselves on creating a supportive and inclusive environment where every student can thrive and reach their full potential. With a team of dedicated and passionate staff, the school aim to deliver the highest standards of education and care to the students.

Job Responsibilities:

As a Higher Level Teaching Assistant, you will work closely with the class teacher to deliver engaging and inclusive lessons that cater to the diverse needs of our students. Your key responsibilities will include:

  • Collaborating with the class teacher to plan and deliver effective lessons that promote learning and development.
  • Providing classroom coverage and taking charge of the class in the absence of the regular teacher.
  • Supporting individual students with their academic and personal development goals.
  • Demonstrating effective behaviour management skills in line with our school’s behaviour policy.
  • Assisting with the assessment and monitoring of student progress, providing feedback to the class teacher.

  • A genuine passion for working with children and a commitment to their overall development and well-being.

 Benefits:

In return for your dedication and commitment, we offer a competitive salary and a supportive working environment. This is an excellent opportunity to join our local SEN school and potentially secure a direct contract later in the year.
