A Special Needs Learning Support Assistant (LSA) plays a crucial role in supporting students with diverse learning needs in educational settings. The job description can vary depending on the specific institution and students' requirements, but generally includes the following responsibilities:
**Student Support**: Provide one-on-one or small group support to students with special needs, ensuring they can access the curriculum and participate in classroom activities.

**Communication**: Maintain open and effective communication with parents or guardians, sharing progress updates and collaborating on strategies to support learning at home.
**Promoting Inclusion**: Foster an inclusive classroom environment by encouraging understanding, empathy, and acceptance among students without special needs towards their peers who require additional support.
**Safety and Welfare**: Ensure the safety and well-being of students at all times, adhering to safeguarding policies and procedures.
This role demands patience, empathy, and a proactive approach to meeting the diverse needs of students with varying abilities.
