  • Sessions run during the school day (term time only) and typically last 3 to 5 hours.
  • Working flexibly (on a bank staff contract) as part of a compassionate, expert-led team that values you, your skills and creative input.
Who We're Looking For
  • Education professionals with experience supporting children with SEN and SEMH needs, including challenging behaviour, anxiety, brain injury and Cerebral Palsy.
  • Experience delivering or supporting with the Primary National Curriculum.
  • A minimum of 2 consistent weekdays of availability.
  • Up-to-date understanding of safeguarding and child protection.
What you can expect from Fresh Start in Education
  • GBP 25-GBP 35 per hour, depending on experience.
  • Travel subsidy & GBP 15 per day resource allowance.
  • Free access to counselling and wellbeing services, pension options, and store discounts.
