· Dedicated support from a specialist SEND consultant who understands your needs
· A generous 'Recommend a Friend' referral scheme
· A genuine commitment to matching the right person with the right school - we listen, we understand, and we care

Key responsibilities:
· Provide one-to-one and small group support to pupils with SEND and/or SEMH
· Assist the class teacher with planning and adapting learning activities
