  • Use visual timetables, now-and-next boards, and sensory resources

  • Support transitions throughout the school day

  • Assist with personal care and toileting where required

  • Observe and record pupil progress

  • Maintain safeguarding and health & safety procedures

Person Specification

We are seeking someone who:

  • Has strong communication and teamwork skills

  • Is committed to inclusion and safeguarding

  • Is keen to develop professionally

What the School Can Offer
