You will initially be required for 15 hours per week, with the hours increasing to 20 hours per week in January 2026 and increasing further to 30 hours per week in April 2026. This is a fixed term contract until 31 August 2026; possibly with the option to extend.
The successful applicant will ideally have a level 3 childcare qualification and will have experience of working with younger children and those who need additional academic, emotional and communication support. Training support will be provided for the right candidate to build knowledge of ASD and communication techniques. We will consider all applicants with appropriate skills, passion and commitment for this important role.
The successful applicant should want to play a full part in the life of the school as part of a friendly and dedicated team, who are committed to high standards.
