Assistant Community Learning Support

4 months ago


Milton Keynes, United Kingdom MacIntyre Full time

**Have you considered a career in education Could you inspire young people with learning disabilities to grow and develop Every day is different but one thing is the same: the sense of achievement you will feel as you watch young people blossom into adulthood.**

You will join us as an Assistant Community Learning Support in the Milton Keynes area. You'll be joining a great team, working 38 hours a week, 38 weeks a year.

You will work mostly out in the community rather than in a classroom setting. You'll teach young people whose learning difficulties or autism mean that mainstream education won't always meet their needs. Using a tailored curriculum, you teach what is important for the individual: key life skills and appropriate lessons in literacy, numeracy and ICT.

You may be working with someone like Amanda*. She had been supported 2:1 in school and was not included in any of the group lessons. During her first term with us we developed a communication system that enabled Amanda to make active choices in her day and have control of how, where and what she was learning. This in turn made her more secure and confident in her learning and by using a communication method - pictures/visuals - that made sense to her we had a dramatic reduction in behaviours that challenge and Amanda was not only able to join in group sessions with peers but also made friends with other learners.

Every day is different but one thing is the same: the achievement you will feel as you watch young people blossom into adulthood.

**What we need from you**

Perhaps you’ve worked in special education or as a Support Worker in the Social Care sector. However, experience is not essential. For us, underlying ability and attitude are just as important as background and experience.

If you have not worked in the field of education before then please don’t be put off. We can provide all of the specialist training you need.

**About us**

MacIntyre is a national charity which supports over 1,200 people with a learning disability and/or autism.

We were founded in 1966 by the visionary parent of a child with disabilities and have been growing steadily ever since. We celebrate and develop everyone’s unique gifts, talents and contributions.

Our No Limits division provides bespoke education programmes to children and young people for whom more traditional learning environments may not have worked.

**Training and Development**

At Macintyre we fully support your training and development. We know it can be daunting to start a new job, and not everyone learns the same way, so throughout your probation we will provide you with a mixture of eLearning, face-to-face training and mentoring support whilst on the job.

But it doesn't stop there - throughout your career with us you will have access to our own dedicated in house Learning and Development team, Quality Specialists and HR Teams. These teams, along with your Manager, will provide you with opportunities to learn and develop professionally as well as enabling and supporting you to achieve professional qualifications and career progression opportunities - all free of charge.

We provide a range of benefits to reward and thank our staff which includes:

- 5.6 weeks' annual leave including statutory public holidays)
- Workplace Pension scheme - MacIntyre will contribute 3% of your salary to all eligible employees
- MacIntyre Staff Savings Scheme
