  • Knowledge of EHCPs (Education, Health, and Care Plans) and the SEND Code of Practice.
  • Experience in working with assistive technologies and adaptive learning tools.
Benefits
  • Comprehensive induction and ongoing professional development opportunities.
  • Supportive and inclusive work environment.
  • Term-time working hours, allowing for a healthy work-life balance.
