Harris Boys' Academy East Dulwich opened in September 2009 and is part of the Outstanding Harris Federation. Our vision is clear: nothing is impossible and everything is possible, irrespective of personal characteristics or background. Every problem has a solution. We believe we are more robust, resilient and determined as a team than as a group of individuals. We support, challenge and hold each other to account at all levels within the academy to ensure that our students achieve their potential, are motivated, engaged and fully prepared for life beyond our academy.

Benefits

In addition to the opportunities for career development and progression, we also offer a competitive rewards and benefits package which includes our Harris Allowance (usually £2,000 for Inner London and £1,500 for Outer London), a Performance and Loyalty Bonus, Teachers Pension Scheme, a Wellbeing Cash Plan, Employee Assistance Programme, and many other benefits. Learn more about our benefits on our website.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Supporting students on the SEND / AEN Register
• Helping students access support and understand the causes and consequences of their behaviours, and to modify their behaviours to gain greater academic success
• Working closely with all academy staff to ensure that information is shared as appropriate to improve directly studnets' academic success
• Staffing the learning support department, supporting students who need timetabled time for academic study
• Knowing and understanding the learning needs of all students
• Liaising with staff to ensure that students can make maximum progress
• Supporting the learning and social development of students, including planning and delivering support sessions to small groups and 1:1
