Day to day
Work 1:1 and in small groups with pupils who have Autism, ADHD and EBD.

Calm under pressure, clear in your language, and consistent with boundaries. You follow support plans, spot triggers early, and adjust your approach without fuss to keep pupils learning.
Requirements
* Degree – 2:2 or above in any subject.
* Communication – Confident verbal and written skills.
* Enhanced DBS – Held already or willingness to obtain.
* Desire to work in education/with children – Genuine interest in SEN, behaviour and pupil wellbeing.
* Experience working with children – Relevant experience (SEN support, mentoring, tutoring, volunteering) is desirable but not essential.
The School
This ‘Good’ Coleshill primary serves a mixed local intake and keeps classrooms calm through straightforward, consistent routines. Inclusion is embedded: the SEN team runs regular plan–do–review cycles, provides ready-to-use visuals and sensory tools, and maintains access to regulation spaces for pupils who need a reset. Reading is front and centre (systematic phonics and daily guided reading), while maths follows a small-steps sequence with frequent retrieval and practical models. Teams co-plan and share intervention packs, model answers and quick observation templates—so you’re never starting from scratch. New colleagues receive a structured induction, weekly bite‑size CPD and short coaching drop‑ins with precise, usable next moves, giving you the conditions to show impact quickly and build a strong portfolio for Educational Psychology or ITT routes.
How to Apply
Email your CV and include availability and DBS status (add two referees if you can). Shortlisted candidates will have a brief phone screen and an in‑school observation. Early applications are encouraged, as the school may appoint before the closing date.
Due to the volume of applications, only shortlisted candidates will be contacted.
