Work collaboratively with teachers and SEN staff to track progress and adjust support as needed
Role Requirements:

Available full-time (term-time), typically Monday–Friday during school hours
Prior experience working with primary-aged children, ideally in an SEN or 1:1 support role
Understanding of autism, ADHD, and inclusive education practices
Enhanced DBS on the Update Service (or willingness to apply)

Competitive daily pay, paid weekly
Access to ongoing training (e.g. ASC awareness, ADHD strategies, de-escalation techniques)
Opportunity to explore different school settings before committing long-term
Supportive consultant who will match you with suitable roles and provide regular check-ins
Chance to make a lasting impact on a child’s school journey while building your SEN experience
