About the Schools:
The schools provide a supportive and structured environment for students with a wide range of autism profiles, including those with additional needs such as ADHD, sensory processing difficulties, anxiety, and speech and language delays.

Support pupils with ASD on a 1:1 basis or in small groups, helping them access learning in a way that suits their needs
Assist teachers in delivering structured, visual, and multi-sensory lessons
Help implement individual support plans and EHCP targets
Encourage positive behaviour, engagement and communication
Provide support with emotional regulation and sensory needs, using calm, consistent strategies
Work as part of a multi-disciplinary team including teaching staff, SENCOs, and therapists
The Ideal Candidate Will Have:
Experience supporting children or young people with autism or special educational needs
A calm, patient, and empathetic approach
An understanding of communication needs and/or behavioural strategies used in ASD settings
Good communication and teamwork skills
A willingness to learn and adapt to the needs of individual pupils
Backgrounds in education, care, psychology or youth work are highly desirable
