Supporting emotional regulation, positive behaviour, and independence will be central to your role, helping pupils feel confident and included within the school community.

You will work in partnership with class teachers, the SENCo, and external professionals to deliver consistent and effective support. Observations, record keeping, and feedback will inform planning and ensure pupils’ progress and wellbeing are monitored closely.

Strong relationships with pupils and families are highly valued, and you will be supported to communicate openly and positively. The school offers a collaborative culture where staff are valued and encouraged to develop their skills through training and SEN-focused professional development.

You will:

  • Provide targeted support for pupils with SEN

  • Work one-to-one and in small groups

  • Support learning, behaviour, and emotional wellbeing

  • Assist with personalised learning strategies

  • Build strong, trusting relationships with pupils and staff

In return, we offer:

  • A welcoming and supportive staff team

  • Strong leadership and inclusive school values

  • Access to SEN training and CPD

  • Well-resourced classrooms and support services

  • Pupils who are eager to learn and succeed

To be considered for this position, please forward an up-to-date CV as soon as possible.

Our school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people.
