What skills and experience we're looking for
We are looking for six dynamic, committed and innovative individuals to join our team as Achievement Support Assistants. These roles come about as a result of an increasing number of complex pupils joining the school as well as the school’s collaboration with the Local Authority in opening a SEND unit on site for up to twenty children.
You may be deployed into any phase of the school, including the SEND Unit and your role and responsibilities may be varied. For example, you may be asked to support individual and groups of children within the classroom, or may be required to carry out interventions in a specific phase of the school. Whatever your role, you will play a key part in shaping the direction of our school, through your unwavering support for our children.
As a school with a very high proportion of pupils with additional needs, a willingness to work with children with very complex needs is desirable, as is a willingness to undertake further additional training.
If you are ready for a challenge, have a positive outlook and want to develop your understanding and skills in a supportive Trust, then we would love to hear from you.
The successful candidates will:
- Have an understanding of how children learn and how to get the best from them
- Have experience of working in a primary or nursery setting
- Be a team player, willing to go above and beyond for our children
- Have excellent interpersonal skills
- Be understanding and have empathy with children
- Have a passion to work with vulnerable children and be flexible to meet their needs
What the school offers its staff
We can offer:
- Delightful children who love being in school
- Hard-working, motivated and knowledgeable staff, who work together in the best interests of children
- Opportunities to work with colleagues across our schools
- Investment in your development, through targeted CPD
Commitment to safeguarding
Our organisation is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults. We expect all staff, volunteers and trustees to share this commitment.
Our recruitment process follows the keeping children safe in education guidance.
