This may include supporting learning in class, delivering academic interventions, providing targeted support for pupils with SEND and in ARP, or contributing to therapeutic and pastoral provision. We are looking for someone who can build positive relationships with children, work well as part of a team and respond calmly and professionally to the changing needs of a busy the school. The successful candidate will support pupils individually, in small groups and within whole-class settings, helping them to access learning, develop confidence, regulate their emotions and experience success. The role will also include supporting children during less structured parts of the school day, including playtimes and lunchtimes, and helping to ensure that pupils are safe, included and able to play and interact positively. The successful candidate may also be required to support pupils with personal care, intimate care, medical needs or physical needs, following appropriate training and always with dignity, sensitivity and professionalism. This post would suit someone with experience of working with children in a school or similar setting, who is calm, caring, reliable and committed to helping every child feel safe, understood and ready to learn.
