We are seeking a dedicated and enthusiastic Intervention Support Worker to join our supportive team at our secondary school. This is an exciting opportunity for someone who wants to make a real difference to the lives of young people by providing targeted support to help them develop academically, socially and emotionally.

As an Intervention Support Worker, you will work with students who require additional support to access learning, improve their progress and build confidence. You will deliver targeted interventions, work with small groups and individual students, and support those who may be experiencing difficulties with their learning, attendance, behaviour or wellbeing.

Working closely with teaching staff, the SEND team and pastoral colleagues, you will help identify barriers to learning and provide tailored support to ensure students have the best possible opportunities to succeed.
** Your responsibilities will include:
*** Delivering targeted one-to-one and small-group interventions to support students' progress and achievement.
* Supporting students to develop their confidence, resilience, independence and positive learning behaviours.
* Helping students overcome barriers to learning, including academic, social and emotional challenges.
* Monitoring and recording student progress, providing feedback to teachers and relevant colleagues.
* Building positive relationships with students and encouraging engagement, participation and a positive attitude towards learning.
* Supporting students with additional needs, where appropriate, to access the curriculum.
* Working collaboratively with teaching staff, pastoral teams and families to ensure a consistent approach to student support.
* Promoting the school's values, high expectations and commitment to safeguarding.

Our ethos is 'Aspiring and Achieving Together'. Whilst we are committed to ensuring that every student makes excellent progress, this concept stretches well beyond academic performance. We firmly believe that every aspect of school should equip learners to be successful in all areas of their lives, both now and for their future. Indeed, every single decision or action taken improves the life chances of all our learners.

This is underpinned by ensuring The Westleigh school is a safe, nurturing and happy environment: put simply, The Westleigh School is a great place to learn and a great place to work.

Uniting with The Shaw Education Trust brings with it new opportunities and a wealth of resources to supplement our mission to improve outcomes for all our students. Colleagues will have access to a large range of well-established training opportunities, such as a fully funded L5 Instructional Coaching qualification or Accelerated Leadership training, for those aspiring to Middle Leadership. Outstanding teachers will also achieve Trust Professional Advocate designation, which provides exciting opportunities to support colleagues within both The Westleigh School and across other SET schools to share best practice.

With this brings the opportunity to engage in the cross-trust peer review and Trust CPD programme.

All candidates are required to provide a supporting statement on the formal application forms which states clearly your reasons for applying, skills and experience for this position.
