Your key responsibilities will include:
* Providing 1:1 and small group support to students with additional learning needs
* Assisting teachers in delivering engaging and inclusive lessons
* Supporting students with behavioural, emotional, and social needs
* Monitoring progress and providing feedback to staff and parents

* Patient, empathetic, and able to build strong relationships
* Able to work collaboratively with staff and external professionals
* Experienced in supporting students with SEND, SEMH, or behavioural needs (desirable but not essential)
