**Salary**: £30.20ph

Barry Bennett are one of the largest companies offering specialist support to students in receipt of DSA (Disabled Students’ Allowance) throughout the UK. We provide a range of support specialised to everyone’s individual needs whilst studying at university.

This specialist one to one support focuses on helping students to develop study skills and strategies to work effectively in a higher education context in the presence of their condition. This support can be recommended for students with an SpLD, and also by exception in cases where a student has another condition which has an impact on their learning similar to that of an SpLD (e.g. an acquired brain injury). This support should be tailored to a student’s individual needs, and support workers delivering this role should set out clear goals and timescales for achieving these goals. A reducing level of support to enable independence should be agreed, where it is appropriate.

Support workers undertaking this role should have an in-depth knowledge and understanding of the effects of SpLDs on language and learning in a higher education context, together with an awareness of the strengths which students with these conditions can bring to a learning situation and the skills to help students make use of these strengths and overcome barriers to learning.

**Main Responsibilities**
- Support should address the issues some students may have in acquiring, recalling, and retaining information of written and spoken language.
- The role involves addressing a range of memory, organisational, attention, and numeracy difficulties that students often face when working in a higher education (H.E) context. It should be noted that these difficulties may have been identified already but they may only become evident when a student faces the academic challenges of H.E work.
- The support should aim to develop students’ skills for autonomy in the learning environment.
- The support should be tailored to a student’s individual needs and professionals delivering the support should set out clear goals and timescales for achieving these goals.
- Some students will require ongoing support throughout their course. Others may require less support as the course continues.

**Requirements**:
The successful applicant will possess the following qualities
- Substantial experience of working with students with disabilities and/or specific learning difficulties on a one -to -one basis.
- An in-depth understanding of the effects of specific learning difficulties on language and learning.
