Team Teach / MAPA
Buccal midazolam training
Hydrotherapy and physio training
Rebound therapy
Peg & Tube Feeding
Due to the nature of this role and enhanced DBS check will take place prior to employment.

Such a fulfilling job role is rare to find and generally members of staff get into this line of work because of their passion for pupils with ALN.
