- “The school’s behaviour policy is well understood and applied by teachers. As a result, low-level disruption is rare._

We have an established SEND team at SRWA, including 8 enthusiastic and dedicated Apprentice TAs, some of whom are approaching the end of their temporary Level 3 training programmes and are looking to move into permanent TA roles elsewhere. As such, an exciting opportunity has arisen to join our committed and dedicated team of SEND staff, on a temporary fixed term basis for 18-24 months duration, as an Apprentice Level 3 Teaching Assistant from September 2023. There is one vacancy for this role.

**The Role**:
Under the direction of the SENDCo and teaching staff, to support targeted SEND students across the curriculum, to help them fulfil their potential.

This is an important role working closely with young people and a fantastic opportunity for someone with the right skills and attributes who wants to make a difference to the life experiences and achievements of our students.

Quote from an Apprentice Teaching Assistant at SRWA:

- “Being a TA Apprentice has been a great way to start off my career working in education while making a difference to young people. Through this role I have learnt so much about the world of education and Special Educational Needs that will help me as I continue working in Education. Not only that, but it's been a valuable opportunity to make a difference to young people through some very turbulent years for them”._
