• Helping learners progress – From community projects and external speakers to exciting visits and enterprise activities, you’ll play a key role in delivering memorable learning experiences.
• Providing personalised support – You’ll assist in planning, organising and delivering content based on individual EHCPs, ensuring reasonable adjustments and access arrangements are in place.
• Building brilliant relationships – Whether it’s with students, local authorities, families or colleagues, you’ll help create a supportive, inclusive environment where everyone can thrive.
• Making a difference every day – You’ll support assessment, marking and reviews, while encouraging good attendance, positive behaviour and a love of learning.

We’re looking for someone who’s caring, enthusiastic and ready to roll up their sleeves to support students who need that little bit of extra help.
