These schools support students aged 10-16 with a range of additional needs, including autism spectrum conditions (ASC), social, emotional and mental health difficulties (SEMH), and moderate learning needs.

Working one-to-one or in small groups to deliver personalised interventions
Promoting emotional well-being and social development
Working closely with teachers, therapists, and other professionals
Ideal Candidates Will Have:
A passion for working with children and young people with additional needs
Resilience, empathy and strong communication skills
Experience in an SEN, alternative provision or pastoral setting (desirable but not essential)
A proactive attitude and a willingness to learn
A Child-only DBS on the update service (or willingness to obtain one through Tradewind)
What We Offer:
Ongoing professional development and support
Competitive daily rates
Opportunities for long-term placements and potential permanent roles
A chance to truly impact the lives of young learners who need it most
