**Huge Small Victories**

Our school support workers are fulfilled by the idea of making even the smallest positive changes in our young people, so we celebrate the little things.

You’ll be there to help them learn, develop their abilities and raise their self-esteem.

It can be a tough journey, but the positive steps forward will more than make up for it. You’ll be there to take care of our young people day to day, this involves making sure they are up and ready for school, helping with homework, completing paperwork and planning activities.
