We are looking for individuals who are passionate about supporting children with complex Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) and Social, Emotional and Mental Health Difficulties (SEMH).

– Confident in behaviour management and using initiative to handle various classroom situations.

– Ability to lead a team of Learning Support Assistants (LSAs) effectively.

– Pro-active, passionate, and committed to making a positive impact in the lives of SEND pupils.

Role Details:

– Full-time position working Monday – Friday, term-time only. Hours 8:30 – 3:30pm.

– Pay starting from £115 per day (dependent on qualifications and experience).

– Opportunity to take on a permanent contract based on performance.

– Access to over 100+ CPD courses, particularly specific courses on SEND.

Additional Requirements

–          Reference details will be requested prior to registration.
