About the Role

Provide 1:1 support to an individual pupil, helping them navigate their learning and personal development
Implement and adapt personalised educational and behavioural plans aligned with their Individual Education Plan (IEP)
Monitor progress, celebrate achievements, and address challenges in learning and behaviour
Support emotional regulation and resilience through patient, empathetic guidance
Collaborate with teachers, SENCo, and therapists to ensure a holistic approach
Supervise and support during breaks, lunch, transitions, and off-site activities
Essential Skills & Qualifications

Strong communication and teamwork skills
Patience, resilience, and initiative
Full UK driving licence
Ability to build trusting relationships and maintain high expectations
Basic IT literacy and willingness to learn
Desirable (but not essential)
Experience in education, care, or SEN settings
Relevant qualifications (Childcare, Education, Social Care)
Experience supporting pupils with Autism or SEMH needs
You’ll be part of a supportive, forward-thinking team where your contribution matters every day. Enjoy professional growth, make meaningful connections, and see the difference you make in a pupil’s life.
