You will work as part of a supportive team and play an important role in creating a positive and inclusive learning environment.

We're looking for individuals who are compassionate, patient and adaptable, with the ability to understand that every pupil is different. SEN experience is a strong advantage, but we are also keen to hear from candidates with transferable experience from education, childcare, care, youth work, mentoring, sports coaching or similar support-based roles.
