What skills and experience we're looking for
Your opportunity
This is an exciting opportunity for an individual who is passionate about pupil welfare and can make a difference to the learning journey of a child. The successful candidate will play an integral role in supporting the behaviour, communication, social and emotional development of children across the school and will actively assist our Teachers and Inclusion Leader in supporting children both within and outside the classroom.
The role will be split between providing interventions through small group and one-to-one work with pupils to support their learning and academic progress and providing behavioural and pastoral support as a trained ELSA (Emotional Literacy Support Assistant) and Thrive Practitioner. As a trained DDSL (Deputy Designated Safeguarding Lead) the successful candidate will also support the safeguarding leaders in school to respond to any individual pupil needs or concerns raised.
Experience of a similar role or working in a primary school is preferred, however we would also welcome applications from candidates with a background of supporting young children in a different context.
