Learning Support Assistant job summary

We are seeking to appoint a patient, calm and caring Learning Support Assistant to join our growing team.

The postholder will work under the direction of the SENDCo, teaching staff and other relevant colleagues to provide in-class support, small-group intervention, one-to-one support where appropriate, and assistance with students’ social, emotional and personal development.
