We work with mainstream and special schools with students that are from nursery up to secondary age.

As a highly rewarding role, you will play a vital part in supporting a student's learning journey, working on a one-to-one basis or in small groups. The work won't be anything too academic but primarily focusing on developing their social and regulating emotional skills.

- Ensure the safety and well-being of students at all times
- Support students during transitions between activities and locations within the school
- Provide emotional and behavioural support to students, helping them to develop coping strategies and self-regulation skills
- Work collaboratively with teachers, SENCO and other staff members to address the individual needs of students

Essential Criteria
- Have an interest in supporting children/young people
- Right to work in the UK
- Relevant references and DBS/police checks if necessary
- Able to work 5 days a week (term time only), 8:30-15:30

Vetting: Five Education is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all of the staff we employ to share this commitment.
