Learning Support Assistant (Special Educational Needs) job summary
We are committed to building a diverse team and strongly encourage applications from underrepresented groups such as people from minority ethnic backgrounds, LGBTQ+ people and people with disabilities.
The Fox Federation is a passionate community of three schools working collaboratively to ensure equal access to consistent, excellent education for all pupils. Our schools are Fox Primary School in Notting Hill, Ashburnham Community School in Chelsea and Avonmore Primary School in Kensington Olympia.
We are an inclusive Federation and ensure that each and every pupil has an equal opportunity to attain their maximum potential throughout all aspects of the curriculum. This role will be focused around working with a child with special educational needs. This involves supporting them to access the school curriculum and also, working collaboratively with the class teacher, on the Outcomes within their Educational Healthcare Plan.
It is our firm belief that the key to successfully supporting children with special educational needs is building a strong relationship and a sense of trust with the child. From this strong relationship, the child will learn to feel secure, understand their boundaries and be challenged and encouraged in their learning. They develop vital social skills and gain independence. For this reason, experience is not essential to this role, though it may be an advantage.
The role will be to build that relationship with the child to help them grow and reach their full potential. The successful candidate will be supported in developing and implementing effective strategies to support the child, by the SENDCo and Class Teacher.
If you are ambitious and determined to make a difference, we would like to meet you.
