Summary
Job/Person Summary
Rowhill is a Pupil Referral Unit serving the secondary schools in North East Hampshire we have approximately 80 students on our roll at any one time and have a highly effective outreach programme working with students either in their mainstream schools or their homes. Students are referred to Rowhill for a variety of reasons including being medically unfit for school, emotionally vulnerable, at risk of permanent exclusion or because they have been permanently excluded from school.
Our school strives to cultivate a desire for learning and self-improvement so that students leave Rowhill School with the tools needed to succeed in their onward pathways, we strive to develop well mannered, confident and culturally rich individuals.
We are looking for an Inclusion Assistant to join our staff here at Rowhill School to cover maternity leave and work within our Inclusion Team to help pupils across the school day, with a particular focus on engagement within lessons. The successful candidate will be expected to support all pupils, under the direction of the Inclusion Manager. This will also include administration duties such as reviewing behaviour data, and intervening with preventative and reactive support, conducting morning and lunchtime duties, liaising closely with parents/carers and pupils, and at times including supervision of whole classes during short-term teacher absences, as well as exam invigilation at key points in the year. As a member of the Inclusion Team, the successful candidate will at times hold key information to effectively support pupils daily and it is integral that communication skills are strong, in order to share key messages appropriately and effectively across the school. When necessary, the successful candidate will meet with parents, pupils, and other stakeholders to discuss progress and possibly the reintegration of pupils following periods of suspension or absence. This is an exciting and dynamic role where no two days are the same and you can have long-lasting and meaningful impact on the lives of vulnerable young people.
Key characteristics required for the role include the need to build strong and meaningful relationships with pupils and staff, be adaptable and reactive to the needs of the school, and consistently reflect on the past ways to support those around you. Whilst praising and encouraging pupils, the candidate must be able to provide clear boundaries and communicate effectively with all stakeholders. Regular continued professional development will be provided via in house support.
The successful candidate will be educated to at least GCSE level and have proven literacy and numeracy skills, having achieved Grade 4, or above, in Maths and English. The ideal candidate must also be able to demonstrate resilience, resourcefulness, initiative, good time management and patience.
