1:1 SEND Learning Support Assistant

1 month ago


Leeds, United Kingdom Leeds City Council Full time

Harewood C of E Primary School is looking to appoint an enthusiastic and creative 1:1 Learning Support Assistant for a delightful pupil with physical and developmental delay who needs support to access her learning. 

Your role will be to support the pupil 1:1 to enable them to access their curriculum and reach their full potential. Whilst working in the classroom setting there will also be opportunities to support other children within the class. This is a varied role that will require flexibility and a positive attitude.

Starting as soon as possible, this is a full-time role but we can be flexible and would also consider appointing someone on a part time basis to suit their availability.

As the post is mainly to provide 1:1 support for a child, the position is dependent on the child remaining at the school and funding remaining in place but we are expecting this to be until the end of the summer term 2025.

This is a fantastic opportunity for a committed 1:1 Learning Support Assistant to make a difference to a pupil’s experience of education. The successful candidate will be required to work with the pupil who is currently in Year 5. She is a delight to work with, positive and keen to be part of all of school life. 

Ideally applicants should have:

* Experience working with children with SEND

* Experience of communicating with a child who is non-verbal

* Experience of using Makaton to support communication difficulties or be willing to learn.

* Have a high expectation for achievement and behaviour

* GCSEs or equivalent, including Maths and English

* Willingness and ability to obtain and/or enhance qualifications and training for development in the post.

* Experience of working in a school

* An ability to work flexibly and use their own skills and initiative to enhance learning.

As we are a Church of England school with a Christian ethos. Candidates must be willing to support the school in promoting Christian values.

In return we can offer:

* A small friendly school with hardworking, dedicated and supportive colleagues

* A supportive governing body, leadership and staff team

* The opportunity to become part of a school community where children are at the heart of all we do

* Great children with a desire to learn 

* Opportunities for continued professional development

* Term time only working

* The potential for additional hours working with our Extended Provision.

The full time hours of work will be 30.4 hours per week from 8.40am to 3.15pm term time only. You will not routinely be expected to attend school Teacher Training Days but may be invited to do so where the training is relevant to the role.

If you would like to find out more about the role or visit the school , please contact the school office or email and we will make arrangements.

Shortlisting will take place shortly after applications close. We will then contact successful applicants to arrange times for interviews.

We look forward to meeting the right candidate(s) and appointing a new member of staff to join our team.
