In this role, you will work closely alongside teachers and support staff to deliver individualised support both within the classroom and through small-group interventions. You will help pupils access learning activities tailored to their individual needs, encourage positive behaviour, support emotional regulation, and promote social development throughout the school day. You may assist with literacy and numeracy activities, support communication and interaction skills, help implement EHCP targets, and adapt learning approaches to meet a variety of learning needs. Building positive and trusting relationships with pupils will be key, enabling them to develop confidence, independence, and resilience within a supportive learning environment. Every day will be different, offering the opportunity to make a lasting impact on the educational and personal development of young people who benefit from additional support.
