We are seeking to appoint two outstanding Special Educational Needs Assistants to work with two young children needing SEN support.  This post is primarily a 1:1 role for the two children with Education and Healthcare plans in our Reception class.

The role will require the candidate to take suggested activities from class teachers and outside agencies and provide appropriate support on a daily basis. The candidate would be expected to work in a flexible way to support the child

within the class environment and outside of class on a 1:1 basis and as part of small groups.

The successful candidate needs to be resilient, energetic and determined to provide the best possible support, through a proactive and flexible approach. Initiative and creativity in adjusting tasks and activities in response to the child’s needs, in order to ensure progress and achievement against set targets and goals will be essential.

We are a very supportive and friendly team and welcome visits to the school.  We can offer:
