Data and Reporting: Accurately record and report on behavioural incidents, feeding back to the SENCO and pastoral leads to inform and refine student support plans.

Exceptional personal resilience, patience, and a non-judgemental approach to complex social and emotional barriers to learning.
A relevant qualification (e.g., Level 3 Teaching Assistant, Youth Work, or equivalent professional experience).

Contract: Full-Time, Long-Term Contract (potential for permanent conversion).
Start Date: Monday 3rd November 2025, or ASAP.
