North East Derbyshire Support Centre is seeking a flexible, committed, enthusiastic and highly skilled Specialist Teaching and Learning Assistant, to be based at our High Peak site.
The school provides statutory education to children who are at risk of, or have been permanently excluded. Pupils who attend the school have challenging and often complex needs, and exhibit behaviours that prevent them from attending a mainstream school.
The successful candidate will inspire, motivate, and support pupils to reach their full potential, by providing stability within a nurturing environment. Successful candidates will support the delivery of the a school curriculum and may also work independently with young people in small groups or on a one-to-one basis for intervention work. The role will require preparing and adapting to meet the social and emotional needs of young people to support their academic education in mainstream. Strong behaviour management skills are essential to this post.
Applicants should have good knowledge and experience of working with disaffected pupils in a school setting, preferably at KS3 and 4. An affinity for pupils with behaviour, emotional and social difficulties is an essential quality for this challenging but rewarding opportunity. Applicants should be resilient, have high expectations, and a sense of humour.
The role is based at our High Peak site, however there is a possibility of working, at times, off-site peripatetically in pupil's homes, other venues, sites, or APs, and so access to a car daily is required with added business insurance.
If the needs of the academy changed, the base site may be amended. The base site is to calculate mileage from. Work may be required at other sites if the need arises.
Benefits include: LGPS Pension Scheme, Westfield Health membership and free parking.
