We are looking for someone with a passion for inclusion and SEN/D. We want someone who can live and breathe inclusion and diversity, celebrate the range of children we have at Green Park Village Primary Academy and champion their needs to ensure that all children have every opportunity to succeed. This starts with a candidate who has a willingness to interact with and support all children in our school. We’re looking for someone who is a team player, who can work alongside the energetic and skilled learning and teaching team and be flexible to what is required for smooth running of the children’s school day.

Building our school has involved dedication, commitment and hard work from all our team involved to date. We would not be where we are without the contribution of all of our team (past and present) and the willingness to apply themselves to all needing doing. We ask that all learning support staff are flexible to the needs of the school as we grow and this may involve being a specialist within a phase or being willing to support across phases.
