Prepare learning resources and support a range of classroom, outdoor and enrichment activities, including educational visits.
Monitor and record pupil progress, providing valuable feedback to teachers and the wider multidisciplinary team.
Work collaboratively with teachers, therapists and pastoral staff to deliver consistent, high-quality support.
Supervise pupils during breaktimes and throughout the school day, helping to maintain a safe, positive and inclusive environment.

Happy supporting learning both in the classroom and through creative, practical and outdoor activities.
An excellent communicator who builds positive relationships and encourages pupil engagement.
Proactive, resilient and committed to continuous learning and professional development.
Dedicated to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people.
