Do you get a buzz out of seeing a child's small steps of progress?

Do you like working to support individual children?

Do you enjoy working as part of an enthusiastic team?

We are looking to appoint a part-time learning support assistant for approximately three days a week. You would be working to support a reception-aged child at our small, family-oriented school. The post would involve supporting the child with both education and personal care elements of the school day.

Experience in the following areas would be an advantage:

  • supporting functional communication through PECS
  • autism-friendly approaches eg TEACCH, Communicate in Print,
  • Sensory Circuits and/or BEAM

The sucessful candidate will ideally need to demonstrate:

  • an understanding of the need to adapt and plan activities based on a child's level of development and interests
  • a readiness to learn new skills - we will provide training opportunities
  • flexibility in approaching tasks
  • positivity and a "can-do" attitude to supporting a child with significant and complex needs

Come and meet us - we'd be delighted to show you around so that you can meet us all.
