Woking, United Kingdom Compass Community School Tull Park Full time

Compass Community School Tull Park is an independent specialist school providing high-quality, therapeutic and child-centred education for pupils aged from 11 to 17 years in Woking. Our children come from a wide range of backgrounds but all have Social, Emotional and Mental Health needs (SEMH), and many will also have other Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) such as Autism, ADHD, and communication difficulties. Many will have suffered significant trauma and adverse childhood experiences and may have social care involvement.

The work we do is both varied and challenging and, as a trauma and attachment informed organisation, all staff are provided with extensive therapeutic training and support.

Our closely triangulated approach places the child at the centre of decision making, ensuring that education and therapy professionals, parents/carers, local authority teams and, most importantly, our students can work together to secure outstanding outcomes for all.

 

The Role

HLTAs at our school know that no two days are the same and that no two children are the same either. Our children require very special adults who can support children with complex and challenging behaviours.

They will know that our children require lots of attention, just the right sort of communication, consistency and flexibility in equal measure, and a non-judgemental approach. They need to be resilient, persistent and solution focussed to meet the needs of our children and to do so they need to wear a lot of hats and be prepared to change them at a moment’s notice

Our HLTAs may be

supporting teachers in the classroomworking with children 1:1 or delivering sessions with small groups of studentsmanaging classroom resourcestaking children on trips and visitshaving their lunch with children who struggle sociallymanaging heightened behaviours and keeping children safeplaying board gamesconducting science experimentsmaking amazing displayscelebrating successpart of therapy sessions or reflecting on difficult periods

 

We want our HLTAs to be part of the decision making that drives our school, provides outcomes for children and advocates for every child. We welcome their input in developing both the academic curriculum and the opportunities in our extra-curricular offer – bringing their own interests and passions to the table.
