This is an exciting opportunity to be part of a caring, inclusive, and forward-thinking team dedicated to supporting children with a range of special educational needs.
Working under the direction of the class teacher and SENCO, you will play a key role in delivering high quality, individualised learning experiences that help children develop academically, socially, and emotionally.

Work collaboratively with parents, carers, and professionals to ensure the best possible start for every pupil.
Key Responsibilities

Lead lessons and small group interventions, advancing learning in the absence of the class teacher where appropriate.
Foster pupils’ independence, emotional resilience, and self-esteem.
Use a range of assessment tools to monitor and report on pupil progress.
Work collaboratively with teachers, parents, and external professionals to support individual learning and development plans.
Model inclusive practice and contribute to the positive ethos of the SEND Unit and wider school community.
Support and guide other teaching assistants or volunteers as required.
