Your Role
Rodborough is an inclusive school with a Cullum Centre. This role is a Specialist Resource designed to support autistic students capable of achieving at least 5 GCSEs within a mainstream provision. Learning Support Assistants work across SEND/Cullum for varying hours per week.
We strive to ensure that every student is valued, can actively engage in the curriculum and take part in the broader life of the school. We aim to help students acquire skills which will enable them to enjoy independence and become life-long learners.
The role supports young people to make the best possible progress and provide flexible support and advice for all children experiencing barriers to learning. Duties include mainstream lesson support, working with specific students across the curriculum, running small groups, and providing individual support.
In addition to academic support, all Learning Mentors act as keyworkers and provide a friendly ear for children who sometimes require a sympathetic listener to boost morale.
The role includes an element of admin, updating student records and liaising with all stakeholders (staff, parents and students).
