We are seeking to employ an engaging and motivating Learning Support Assistant. You will need to have a good general education with sound literacy, numeracy and IT skills to provide support to students across all subjects. Knowledge and experience of working with students who are autistic is desirable; you should have a willingness to learn and extend your knowledge in this area. You will also need patience, understanding and commitment, and above all a sincere desire to help young people.
About the role
This secondary specialist provision educates and develops children who, due to their autism, find a mainstream school setting challenging. The Resourced Provision provides a challenging and appropriate academic provision and environment, while developing students’ social and communication skills. The role supports sensory, communication and anxiety difficulties and any associated challenging behaviours where a calm and positive approach is needed. The Autism Resourced Provision students access the whole college site for most of their lessons.
Requirements
