Requirements:
• Experience supporting children or young people with SEMH or additional needs (essential)
• TA qualification or relevant experience (desirable)
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
• A patient, calm, and resilient nature
• Commitment to safeguarding and promoting pupil welfare
In return, you’ll join a school that values professional growth, offers comprehensive training, and fosters a collaborative, inclusive culture. This is an excellent opportunity to secure a permanent role while making a lasting impact on the lives of young people.
