**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. There’s lots of ups and downs, and to some of our young people, sitting through a lesson can be a big win.

Your colleagues will be the best at what they do, the environments will be well-resourced and we’ll be with you every step of the way, helping you build a rewarding career.
