JOB OVERVIEW

We have a fantastic opportunity for an Equine Learning Support Assistant / LSA who has experience working with vulnerable children and young people (CYP), alongside practical equine experience.

Working as an Equine LSA, you will support an innovative education provision delivering alternative therapeutic education within a farm and equine-based environment. You will support children and young people with a wide range of needs through structured and informal learning opportunities involving horses, animal care, and outdoor activity.

A key part of the role is using equine work to support engagement, emotional regulation, confidence building and relationship development. We are looking for individuals who are confident around horses, understand safe handling, and can support young people in learning how to care for and work with equine in a calm and structured way.

You will need to be resilient, as the role involves working with complex young people as well as managing the physical and practical demands of equine and outdoor work. As an Equine Learning Support Assistant / LSA you will provide a supportive and engaging learning experience for children and young people with diverse needs, where animals, nature, and the great outdoors are integral to the curriculum.

Contributing to the day-to-day care and management of horses and other animals, ensuring high standards of welfare are maintained
Using equine work as a tool to support engagement, motivation and relationship building with young people who may be disengaged from traditional education
Providing informal assessment of new young people and contributing to therapeutic and educational goal setting
Supporting the preparation and delivery of structured Animal Assisted Therapy and/or learning sessions, including equine-focused sessions
Liaising with young people, parents/carers and relevant professionals where required
Contributing to the overall ethos and functioning of the organisation, including general farm duties and maintenance where needed

CANDIDATE REQUIREMENTS

Experience working with vulnerable children and young people (CYP), ideally within SEND or alternative provision
Practical, hands-on experience working with horses, including handling, care and basic management
Confidence in supporting others (including inexperienced young people) to safely engage with horses
Degree in a relevant field or significant equivalent experience
Previous experience of direct client work
Experience or interest in Animal Assisted Therapy or Equine Assisted approaches is beneficial
Experience delivering or supporting group-based or practical learning sessions is an advantage
