What skills and experience we're looking for
We have partnered with the Local Authority and opened a brand new specialist base. We need three exceptional founding Learning Support Assistants to help turn our vision into a reality for our EYFS and Year 1 learners.
Our dedicated provision is for children with ASC and complex communication and interaction difficulties. It isn’t just a classroom; it’s a bespoke environment designed to bridge the gap for our youngest learners. As part of our founding team of four LSAs, you will work hand-in-hand with our new Specialist Base Teacher to shape the daily practice, the sensory space, and the inclusive culture of this brand-new hub.
You will provide vital, specialized day to day support for the children within our new provision, ensuring their safety, well-being, and academic progress.
The Support: Deliver high quality, practical support tailored to EYFS/KS1 learners, prioritizing communication, sensory regulation, and social-emotional development.
The Interventions: Implement targeted learning and behavior plans under the guidance of the Specialist Lead, utilizing strategies such as TEACCH, PECS, or Attention Autism.
The Collaboration: Work closely as a team of four LSAs to maintain a calm, structured, and positive environment.
The Partnership: Build trusting, respectful relationships with parents and assist external professionals (Speech & Language, OT) during targeted sessions.
