What skills and experience we're looking for

Clipston is a small, rural, village school near Market Harborough, with 95 pupils on roll aged 4 – 11 years.

We are a fun-loving, friendly and very supportive staff team. We are looking for a passionate, caring and dedicated Teaching Assistant, committed to supporting learning and development.

This post is linked specifically to the learning and development of the pupil to whom you are assigned, to enable him/her to make the best use of the educational opportunities available to them. This is a temporary role until the end of this academic year, linked to funding.

The ideal candidate will have

• experience working with autistic children or adults with a good understanding of the possible associated strengths and challenges

• good Maths and English skills sufficient to support the KS2 curriculum

• the ability to support and run interventions to support social understanding, communication and emotional development

• be able to engage well with other teaching staff, other professionals involved and maintain good communication with the family in order to successfully deliver the requirements of the child’s Education Health and Care Plan (EHCP).

It would be an advantage, but not essential to have experience delivering or supporting ELSA interventions, sensory circuits, visual timetables and other relevant tools, as required by the EHCP.
