• Adapted Learning Techniques: Collaborate with teachers to adapt lesson plans, making learning accessible, enjoyable, and inclusive for each student.
• Positive Behaviour Encouragement: Support the development of social and behavioural skills through a caring, consistent approach, fostering a welcoming classroom atmosphere.
• Progress and Feedback Reporting: Track and document student progress, sharing updates with staff and parents to support ongoing development.

• Skills: Strong communication, patience, adaptability, and an empathetic approach to understanding each student's unique needs.
• Qualifications: GCSE Maths and English proficiency is preferred but not required for individuals with a deep commitment to supporting students with SEN.

Why You'll Love Working with Us

• Rewarding Salary: Competitive pay ranging from £21,000 to £23,000, based on experience.
• Ongoing Professional Development: Access to specialised training and resources focused on SEN education strategies.
• Inclusive, Supportive Culture: Join a compassionate, collaborative team dedicated to creating positive outcomes for all students.
• School Amenities: Enjoy free on-site parking and a vibrant, inclusive school environment that supports both academic and personal growth.
