This is a highly rewarding role, working closely with the Inclusion Lead and SENCo to support teaching and learning, ensuring that all pupils, particularly those who are vulnerable or have additional needs, are able to thrive.

4. Support the delivery of targeted interventions and inclusion-specific curriculum pathways
5. Maintain and update accurate pupil records, including SEN, medical, and pastoral information
6. Contribute to SEN intervention plans, provision maps, PSPs, behaviour plans, and risk assessments
7. Prepare and collate evidence for assessments, care plans, and funding applications (including HNF and LIP)
8. Liaise routinely with staff, parents, carers, and external agencies
9. Support a holistic approach to student development, including wellbeing, aspirations, and social and emotional growth
What We’re Looking For
10. A genuine commitment to supporting vulnerable children and young people
11. Strong interpersonal skills and the ability to build positive relationships
12. Good organisational skills and attention to detail in record keeping
13. The ability to work collaboratively as part of a wider pastoral team
14. Resilience, adaptability, and a proactive approach
What We Offer:
15. The opportunity to make a real difference to the lives of young people
16. A supportive and collaborative pastoral and inclusion team
17. Opportunities for professional development and training
18. A role where you can build meaningful relationships and see pupils grow and succeed
