Protocol Education are currently recruiting Learning Support Assistants for one of our schools which is a Mainstream Primary Resource Provision. Pupils have a range of additional needs including Autism and complex communication barriers for pupils in early years, key stage 1 and key stage 2. The school are looking to expand and are seeking additional Learning Support Assistants with relevant experience for full time work following successful trials.
VERSATILE - You may be supporting Early Years in the morning and then be required to support KS2 in the afternoon. You will never have a dull day in school and will have a real desire to help out where needed.
* RESILIENT - The school can be challenging. The children have a range of needs and can display challenging behaviour that require de-escalation strategies. You will be required to focus on getting the best possible outcomes for children regardless of backgrounds. * INNOVATIVE - Each child has their own EHCP or support plan, which will have guidance and advice on how best to support them. You will be required to build relationships with the children and encourage them to engage in activities that develop their education as well as their social and emotional needs. Children will respond to differing approaches and you must be willing to try innovative methods to engage them.
