This is a fantastic opportunity for anyone interested in working with children with special educational needs.
The total number of hours per week is 30, with a working pattern of Monday to Friday 8:40 am to 3:30 pm (including a 50-minute unpaid break). The post is temporary as it is subject to the continued attendance of the child and/or the result of any special needs or funding review.
