Oak Hill School is a small provision (capacity of 50 on roll) for pupils aged 11-16, all of whom have an EHCP in the category of Social, Emotional and Mental Health. In order to expand our permanent learning support team we are recruiting four additional Learning Support Assistants to join us asap. The successful applicants will support pupils both on a 1:1 and class basis.
Oak Hill School is a warm and welcoming school where the pastoral care is at the forefront of everything we do. We build close relationships with our pupils and their families and this gives us the bedrock from which we can work with our cohort to help them all achieve their potential and make their school days happy, fulfilling and purposeful. This nurturing environment is extended to our staff team where we pride ourselves on looking after our teachers and support staff in the same way as we do our pupils.
All lessons have a high staff to pupil ratio - a member of our team of highly experienced and skilled LSAs and support staff supports teachers in every lesson. We have high expectations of our pupils in terms of behaviour and work output and all staff are trained and encouraged in their development of effective behaviour management skills.
We welcome and strongly encourage visits to the school prior to application and/or interview
