Be part of a team where passion meets purpose, as we work together where the challenge is greatest to change the lives and build the futures of children and young people.

The role of Intervention Teaching Assistant is a key appointment. We are seeking to recruit enthusiastic individuals who have a genuine care and passion for making a difference to the lives of the students we serve by helping students overcome barriers to learning, build confidence and develop skills they need for their future.

The successful applicants will plan, deliver and record intervention sessions to young people, some of whom are identified as having special educational needs and disabilities, setting them up for success as they progress through the school. You will use a calm, consistent approach and will be allocated to one of the following areas: social, emotional, mental health (SEMH); communication and interaction (SALT); cognition and learning (literacy and numeracy).
