This can include highly able students or more complex learning or medical needs such as PMLD, ASC, MLD, SLD, SEMH, SLCN, HI and VI. Working as a Teaching Assistant within SEN Schools may require supporting children with personal care. The level of personal care can vary on a number of factors such as age and learning difficulties.
These are full time, long term roles starting from February (Covid19 depending). We are ideally looking for someone who is a graduate TA however, this is not essential. We are looking for someone who has confidence, resilience, enthusiasm in addition to being highly dependable at short notice.
