• Respond to pupils’ questions and help with their work
• Collect all completed work at the end of the class to be passed on to the teacher
• Report back to the teacher or staff about the behaviour of the class and work carried out according to the school’s procedure and processes.

• A high level of support provided by your dedicated and knowledgeable consultant
• A excellent Refer a Friend Scheme (from £100 in vouchers) *T&C’s Apply*
